Rally your team for Portland Corporate Kickball – June 15, 2012

  1. Updates

Corporate Kickball is back for the third annual Portland tournament!

Round up some team members, slap on your game faces and come out for a day of delicious food, Northwest beverages and friendly play with your peers. 

Corporate Kickball is an employee engagement fundraiser for Playworks Portland that gets your team out of the office and onto the kickball field for an afternoon of team building and fun. Participating teams spend an exciting afternoon seeking out the Golden Kickball Trophy while simultaneously helping to raise funds that support healthy, inclusive and developmental play for nearly 6,000 children in 14 low-income Portland schools. 

By participating in Corporate Kickball, your company can:

  • Increase Employee Engagement: Corporate Kickball offers a team building opportunity outside the office that’s inclusive, collaborative and non-competitive.
  • Raise Visibility: Title sponsors are recognized with logo placement on the Playworks website, annual report, newsletter and other collateral.
  • Support the Local Community: The money raised from Corporate Kickball sponsorships goes right back to Playworks Portland to support our efforts to bring safe and inclusive play to local public schools.
