Creative Cup 2010 a big success
Posted on Thu 28 Oct 2010
On 10th October this year, thirty-one digital agencies from around Manchester got together on a sunny Sunday afternoon for a kick-about. The result? £1,900 netted for the Marie Curie Cancer Care.
GYRO HSR ran out eventual winners against Lightbox in a tightly contested final decided on penalties. Full results and photos from the day can be found on the site.
Freelance web-designer, and organiser of the event, Ian James Cox, told us, “It was great to see all the agencies come together for something worthwhile. We initially aimed to raise £1,000 and we managed to almost double that. It’s a fantastic achievement on everyone’s part.”
He continued, “It reinforces just how tight-knit the digital community in Manchester is, that everyone can jump on-board, get involved and help deliver something so quickly and effectively. Everyone has been really pleased with what they’ve achieved.”
Due to the popularity of the Creative Cup, it is now being rolled out into a weekly league format due to start at the back end of November. Games will be played on Wednesday evenings at 6pm at the MCR Powerleague. Places will once again be limited, so contact the Creative Cup to add your agency to the waiting list.
