Yesterday was the first year of Orlando's Corporate Dodgeball Tournament. The event was amazing. Chuck Brasfeild, Chris Crowley and the rest of the Council Staff did an amazing job with orchestrating the event. We had more than 600 people attend the event and over 4000 login to stream the live video feed. That exceeded Technetium’s expectations for year one.
The overall tournament winner was SkeetSquad, a group of ballers from UCF. They were undefeated heading into the final match and came away winners after near elimination from Independent Dodgeball. Congratulations to both teams, you guys dominated all day long. Hats off to you and congratulations again SkeetSquad on receiving the “Golden Baller” trophy and $1,000 big check. That check should be cashed at a really Big Bank.
Technetium Creative entered a team and came up one game short of the final four. We lost both times to AVP (Avalon Park Group). Kudos to Brendon, Joe and the gang from AVP. You guys did very well.
I would like to thank our title sponsor Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida for supporting the event and helping make things possible. Very special thanks to our event MC Jay Rosario and Celebrity Nissan. Jay and his crew promoted the heck out of the event and really drove traffic. To all of the other sponsors, thank you for your efforts and support. The proceeds go to an outstanding cause.
Central Florida Council staffers, you guys are amazing. Your efforts in pulling this together truly paid off and it showed by the public participation and excitement. Saturday, August 16, 2008 marks the beginning of what we hope is an annual extravaganza. I am still amazed at how many adults came together reliving their youth. We had an amazing time.
Thank you again Chuck and Chris for allowing Technetium Creative to assist in the marketing of this tremendous event.
