2009 SCORES Cup Recap
On Saturday July 11th America SCORES Denver along with the Colorado Rapids hosted the 6th annual SCORES Cup. We had eight teams battle it out to see who would advance to play on the Colorado Rapids' pitch before the Rapids/Dallas game that evening.
Games began at 1PM in round robin style with each team playing 3 30min games. As colleagues worked together to keep the ball moving, the America SCORES Denver staff kept track of points while we all watched dark clouds swarm around Denver and miraculously avoid Dick's Sporting Goods Park.
When the 3 games were over the following four teams advanced to the semi-finals: Hogan and Hartson, Juice, BE Media and MetroBoom. These four teams had the once in a lifetime chance to play soccer inside the Rapids' stadium!
After eating some tasteful ziti from the Smiling Moose Deli, the four teams excitedly gathered on the Rapids' field in anticipation of the next match. After 30mins of play Juice and BE Media came out victorious and advanced onto the finals. After another thrilling 30 minutes, we finally had our 2009 SCORES Cup Champions....BE MEDIA!!! Besides bragging rights and a trophy, BE Media participated in the trophy presentation at half-time of the Rapids game!
Thank you to the eight teams that participated: BE Media, Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, Hogan and Hartson, Juice, MetroBoom, Parsons Brinckerhoff, SCORES Corp and Starbucks. As well as a huge thanks to the Colorado Rapids for all the effort to put together a fun and successful event!
