Send This to the Group Chat: Marathon of Sport Is Back in Edmonton
Picture this. It's a Saturday in November. Your crew is down by one in giant volleyball, your "I don't do sports" friend just made the play of the day, and a Special Olympics athlete on your team is leading the celebration. That's Marathon of Sport, and it returns to Edmonton on November 21 in support of Special Olympics Canada Foundation - and yes, you can register now.
Marathon of Sport?
motionball's Marathon of Sport is a full day of inclusive sport in support of Special Olympics Canada Foundation.. Teams of up to 10 friends rotate through basketball, soccer, football, bocce, ultimate, giant pong, giant volleyball and more. It’s a full day of fun games that will bring out your competitive side, even if you're the least athletic person in the group chat. Each team is joined by 1–2 local Special Olympics athletes who play alongside you all day. Skill level is optional. Enthusiasm is not.
Two ways to Get in on the Action (One Means You’ll Play for Free)
Build a team: Grab up to 10 friends. Everyone registers for $50, and together you work toward a $1,000 fundraising goal. Hit your personal $100 goal and your registration is refunded.
Short a few players? Sign up as free agents and motionball will pair your group with other local young professionals. The bonus? New friends. Every registration comes with a motionball hat and shirt, lunch and refreshments. Companies can also register a corporate team for up to 10 people.
Play and Fundraise for Special Olympics Alberta
70% of funds raised at motionball Edmonton events go straight to Special Olympics Alberta, supporting local athlete programs. The rest supports the Special Olympics Canada Foundation and the #NoGoodWay campaign to end use of the r-word.
Here’s what to Send to the Group Chat
You know the friends who always say "we should do something" and never do. This is the something. Pick your team name now and block off November 21 for the best thing you’ll do this fall with a group.
