What is the Atlanta Corporate Challenge?
The Atlanta Corporate Challenge is an Olympic-inspired sporting competition for large and small companies and organizations across the metro area benefitting the Atlanta BeltLine Partnership.
In its inaugural year, Atlanta Sport and Social Club and the Atlanta BeltLine Partnership are partnering for Atlanta's largest 3-week employee engagement event. From team sport participation to sideline cheering and volunteer projects, employees will participate in well-structured events that encourage team building, inspire cooperation, and supercharge health & wellness. Not only is The ACC the most diverse sporting opportunity in Atlanta, through the ACC employees are given the opportunity to network with local companies, work with their team outside of the workplace, and gain exclusive access to player perks to BeltLine Businesses.
Events will occur in parks and fields along the Atlanta BeltLine and the greater Metro Atlanta area. Participants are encouraged to visit Atlanta BeltLine businesses to receive special offers and earn additional points for their team throughout the Atlanta Corporate Challenge (ACC). A percentage of team registrations will automatically benefit The Atlanta BeltLine Partnership. Get in the game and give back!
