Official Sponsorship Opportunities
Building the Coconuts
YouTube Reality Docuseries — Bohol, Philippines — Debuting June 23, 2026
Building the Coconuts is not a polished sports fantasy. It is the raw, unscripted reality of building an elite baseball and softball program in the mountains of Bohol, Philippines — where weather, terrain, jungle chaos, and relentless human drama all have a vote. Coach Merv Moore and his wife, Lerma, are being followed 24/7 as they carve a performance center out of the jungle and search the island for the next generation of elite Filipino baseball talent.
What follows are 15 specific, market-ready sponsorship opportunities for brands, businesses, and organizations that want to be part of this story from the very first episode. Each segment is built into the natural flow of the series — not forced advertising, but authentic integration that puts your brand inside one of the most compelling underdog stories in sports media today. The debut is June 23. The time to be first is now.
15 Sponsorship Packages

A weekly 2-minute time-lapse and walkthrough segment showing the visible progress of the Coconuts Performance Center construction — from raw jungle floor to cleared land, concrete pours, framing, and facility milestones.

One of the most emotionally powerful stories in the series — the Coconuts are building a soup kitchen alongside the baseball diamond because, as Coach Merv says, “you cannot hit a curveball on an empty stomach.” This 2-minute recurring segment follows the nutrition program feeding young athletes and the community around the performance center, anchoring the human mission of the club.

Tiered Milestone Pricing
What Each Sponsorship Costs
How it works. All pricing is per episode, measured at 30 days post-publish on YouTube. The sponsor pays the rate for the tier the episode lands in at the 30-day mark. Tiers are locked per episode — if an episode climbs views after 30 days, the original rate holds. Every package is exclusive per category: one sponsor per segment, per episode. All positions are available now ahead of the June 23 premiere.
Why the tiered model. Building the Coconuts is a debut series with no view history yet, which makes cost-per-view deals a hard sell for either side. Tiered milestone pricing solves that: every possible outcome is defined before the sponsor signs. If episodes underperform, the sponsor pays entry-level rates. If the show breaks out, the pricing reflects the reach delivered. No surprises. No renegotiation.

Season Commitment
Multi-Episode Season Discount
Sponsors who commit to a full season package — locking in their segment for every episode of the run — receive a 10% discount applied across all episodes. This is the single most important deal structure to share with sponsors. It locks guaranteed cash flow into the production before the first episode publishes and before you have any view history to point to. For the sponsor, it secures their exclusive segment at the lowest effective cost per episode they will ever see. Season packages are invoiced in advance of the premiere and are non-refundable once the episode run begins.
Launch Incentive
Tier 1 Rate Cap — First Four Episodes
For sponsors who sign before the June 23 premiere, all four launch episodes are billed at Tier 1 rates regardless of actual views. If Episode 1 reaches 40,000 views, the sponsor still pays Tier 1. This solves the single biggest question a first-time sponsor has: uncertainty about what they will owe if the show takes off faster than expected. The cost to the club is minimal — if the show stays in Tier 1, you collect the same amount either way. If it breaks out, you have already built a relationship with a sponsor who now sees the value and is easier to renew at full rates for the rest of the season.
