Employees from 50 Birmingham-area companies competed against each other in 15 events, culminating in a series of sports events at Railroad Park on April 13.
The Corporate Challenge presented by Chick-fil-A saw large and established companies like Alabama Power and Protective Life go up against new, high-growth companies like Shipt in events such as golf, bowling, dodgeball, cornhole, an obstacle course and tug of war.

In addition to the events, companies earned points by contributions and support to the designated charity, Redemptive Cycles, and for creative T-shirt designs. An awards ceremony April 18 will recognize winners in all categories across three divisions based on the size of the companies.
