In order to deliver a fun and safe 2020 event during the COVID-19 pandemic, the 9th annual San Antonio Sports Corporate Cup presented by OrthoNow Injury Clinic was conducted through four virtual challenges. Twenty-two corporate teams transitioned to the virtual event and participated in the Race Across Texas, a team challenge to complete 810 miles run across the state; the 5K Any Way, earning points based on the number of finishers from each company; and the Randolph Brooks Federal Credit Union t-shirt design contest. A key element of the event, a Charity Challenge, continued and was the fourth way teams could earn points, with companies donating to our charity partners.
In a year like no other, companies brought their “A” game to the Charity Challenge. Haven for Hope, South Texas Blood & Tissue Center, University Health System Blood Donor Services, the San Antonio Food Bank and Boys and Girls Club of San Antonio joined San Antonio Sports in receiving much needed items, lifesaving blood and critical monetary donations that will make a real difference (see donation totals below).
We’re grateful to all the companies who supported the event, both through participating and donations through the Charity Challenge. We look forward to next June when we hope to be in-person again at the University of the Incarnate Word.
Congratulations to our 2020 Champions: Capital Group (D1&2), NuStar Energy (D3), Generations Federal Credit Union (D4) and Catto & Catto (D5).
