Corporate Challenge Cup – A Day of Touch Rugby and Charity
The 9th edition of the Corporate Challenge Cup, held at North Bristol and organised by 7 Bamboos Rugby in partnership with Wooden Spoon, marked a resounding success, with a record-breaking 24 teams participating from Bristol and surrounding cities including Gloucester, Cheltenham, and Cardiff. This year’s event not only highlighted the exhilarating sport of touch rugby but also focused on fundraising for the esteemed Wooden Spoon Charity.
The tournament, which has grown in popularity and scale over the years, was a brilliant showcase of athleticism and community spirit. The Wooden Spoon Charity, renowned for its dedication to supporting children with disabilities, fielded two teams and utilized the event to highlight their impactful work, including the construction of facilities like sensory rooms that make a real difference in children’s lives.
In a gripping Cup final, the Bristol Jets clinched victory over last year’s champions, Deloitte, with a tight score of 3-2. The Plate final saw Safran Landing Systems emerge victorious against Stirling, demonstrating their prowess on the field. In the Shield final, Rolls-Royce triumphed over McBraida, rounding off the day’s thrilling competitions.
The 2024 Corporate Challenge Cup was more than just a rugby tournament; it was a celebration of community, competition, and charity. Participants and spectators alike were treated to an event that combined the joys of sport with the spirit of giving back. The funds raised will go a long way in supporting Wooden Spoon’s mission to aid children with disabilities.
As the day concluded, organizers and teams expressed their enthusiasm for the future. “This year’s event was a full success, bringing together a record number of teams and raising significant funds for a fantastic cause,” said Max Lueck from 7 Bamboos Rugby. “We are already excited to welcome teams in 2025 and continue building on this incredible legacy.”
The Corporate Challenge Cup 2024 not only highlighted the competitive spirit of touch rugby but also showcased the power of community and charity. The partnership between 7 Bamboos Rugby and Wooden Spoon proved to be a winning combination, setting a high standard for future tournaments.
