Sport vs Media Charity Basketball Game,

About the event

As a fresh face to the live event and broadcast game, Huddle Studios aims to innovate on the concepts of the All-Star Game and the Charity Classic in combining the two to create a one-of-a-kind experience for fans and players alike. 

Sport vs Media Charity Basketball Game will see Canada’s premier sport media talent face off against the likes of those they spend daily covering: the athletes from across the sports landscape. Team Media will consist of stalwarts from some of the country’s most recognized shows and brands, people who are known for their analysis, praise, and sometimes criticism of what goes on from the court to the field to the rink. Our event will give the target of the media’s attention, the athletes, a unique opportunity to take on their naysayers and armchair coaches directly in a head to head battle on the basketball court. 

While our event will poke at the rivalry between the two groups, it will all boil down to a celebration of the sport space and the power for change that the industry has to offer by donating all profits to charity. In the daily, hourly, and down to the minute coverage media provides of athletes from across the country, the human side of the story can sometimes be lost which is why we will aim to highlight that piece in our pre-event coverage and by showcasing a charity dedicated to achieving equity within sports for populations who may not have always felt like they had a space to play. As amazing and as powerful as the sports industry can be, there is always room for growth, a growth that we hope to be a part of with this event. 

Huddle Studios’ Sport vs Media Charity Basketball Game will be a live event open to the public who purchase tickets on November 25 at 8PM at the Mattamy Athletic Center. It will also be broadcast live to our website for people to watch wherever they are. Those who do attend in person however will have the opportunity to engage with our stars, win prizes, and participate in what is sure to be an electric atmosphere. 

Why should you sponsor?

We are a completely student run and led event completing this for our graduating project. Our event is taking place on one of the busiest university campuses, Toronto Metropolitan University, and promotions for the event will be pumped out to the entire student body meaning our sponsor will have their logo seen by a wide audience. We also have many high profile sport and media personalities playing so their credibility will be associated with your brand.
