Sponsorship is one of the most important sources of income for football clubs and one of the best ways to promotion for sponsors, but today, ambush marketers are considered as a threat for sponsoring companies. The purpose of this study was to investigate effectiveness of sponsoring Iran Football Pro-League. Descriptive-survey method was used. Research sample included 515 spectators of pro-league that selected by stratified random sampling. The result showed that 80.6% of respondents recognized Irancell as pro-league sponsor. Also, chi-square test showed that significantly Irancell was recognized more than ambushers as official sponsor of pro-league. Persons that watched live broadcasting of pro-league matches more than others, incorrectly recognized ambushers as sponsor. Finally, also Irancell acquired high awareness via sponsoring pro-league, but Hamrah-e-Avval by ambushing gained an impressive recognition as pro-league sponsor.
