Competitive Events
We proudly offer five competitive events for the weekend warriors who have yet to accept that their college glory days are over. You know who you are.
5K Run – The chip-timed 5K kicks off the Corporate Cup as the first event of the day so it’s a great chance to put some points on the board for your team and get the momentum going. The course is running through the beautiful CU campus! The gun fires shortly after the 7:30am opening ceremony, which means cooler temperatures and first in line at the Beer Garden.
3v3 Basketball Tournament – Air up your ball, lace up your old sneakers and don’t forget to stretch. Get ready for incredible competition in historic Balch Fieldhouse. Also, it’s only half court hoops so no need to bring oxygen.
Dodgeball Tournament – “If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball.” See you in the Indoor Practice Facility for this fast-moving, ball-flying and trash-talking tournament of crazy fun.
Tug of War – An instant Corporate Cup favorite battled out on the Indoor Practice Facility (IPF) football field. Competition will be bracketed and single-elimination. Hold on for dear life and don’t forget to wear gloves. Cleats are optional, but no metal spikes are allowed.
4x100M Relay – This classic and exciting track and field event serves as the grand finale to the Corporate Cup. Professionally timed, video-taped and officiated, this event will make you feel young again, until you wake up the next morning.
Skill Events
Understandably, not all employees are die-hards, which is why we have created six fun events that open up the field of competition to just about everyone. Come early, be loud, stay late and be as accurate as you can.
Golf Chipping – Bring your favorite wedge and we’ll provide the balls. Warm-up areas are provided.
Corn Toss – What exactly is corn toss? It’s cornhole, bean bag toss, or tailgating competition at its finest. No equipment necessary.
Soccer Kicks –Relive your youth by kicking medium-sized soccer balls into peewee goals from three distances.
Football Throw – For all the Kordell Stewart wannabes out there, this event is for you. Mini footballs will be provided as you throw at targets from three distances.
Frisbee Toss – Tossing a Frisbee is like riding a bike but don’t underestimate the importance of a little practice with your partner before event day. One person tosses, one person catches with 25 chances and fastest time to win.
Sack Race – This is not your 3rd grade, nostalgic potato sack race. It’s a fun, fast and furious relay with four team members hopping a total of 100m. Top finishers advance by heat until the final round. Fastest hoppers take all. Staying on your feet is optional.
Wellness Event
2K Wellness Walk – Come one, come all. This good-for-you event is for everyone and anyone, including family members of company employees, although pets are prohibited. Up to 25 finishers will be scored for overall team points. In the case that this event causes school-aged flashbacks of not getting picked for the team, we apologize in advance.
