The 2024 SCORES Cup Toronto – supported by Tourism Vaughan, marks a significant expansion of North America’s largest annual corporate charity soccer tournament series, the SCORES Cup, which has been a staple in major cities across the United States and in Vancouver, BC for more than a decade.
“As home to a proud soccer community, the City of Vaughan’s Tourism Vaughan Corporation is pleased to be the presenting sponsor of the 2024 SCORES Cup Toronto,” said Mayor Steven Del Duca, City of Vaughan. “Soccer is more than just a sport in our city; it is an important part of our community’s heritage and cultural identity. Supporting sports development is a key city-building priority in Vaughan and one we are focused on nurturing. We look forward to welcoming the players, coaches and attendees to this inaugural tournament and hope they enjoy all our incredible city has to offer!”
Since its inception, SCORES Cup has become the largest annual corporate soccer tournament series globally, attracting top companies and over 300 soccer players each year. Notable participating teams include industry leaders such as Deloitte, Ernst & Young, BMO, McKinsey, Salesforce, and many more.
The SCORES Cup Toronto promises a day filled with camaraderie, competition, and community impact. All proceeds raised from this event will support SCORES’ programming, aimed at supporting vulnerable youth from under-resourced communities by fostering healthy lifestyles, academic engagement, and leadership skills.
“We are thrilled to have the support of Tourism Vaughan as the presenting sponsor of the inaugural SCORES Cup Toronto. For an expansion affiliate of the SCORES network to achieve such an unprecedented positive response from the local business community has been incredible! The tournament is not just about playing soccer; it’s a movement dedicated to making a difference in the lives of young people in our communities,” said Nick Taylor, Executive Director of Canada SCORES Toronto. “We are grateful for all the corporate teams registered in the event and look forward to sharing what the City of Vaughan has to offer them while visiting one of the premier soccer facilities in the Greater Toronto Area.”
