Events - 15.06.10 Sydney Capisco Basketball Challenge
The HÅG brand was celebrated in Sydney with the state's first office chair basketball competition held at the Trivett Peugeot - Alexandria showroom (a proud supporter of Iken’s events). The event also promoted awareness for the Midnight Basketball charity helping ‘at risk’ youths in Australia. Cheer squads attended to watch seven of their leading design firms play on the night. Sydney teams included; Daryl Jackson Robin Dyke, Geyer "Giants", Gray Puksand "Dribblas", HBO + EMTB, Kann Finch Group "Kobras", Leffler Simes Architects and Mode Design.
Firms got into the spirit of the game by wearing colourful costumes and were competitive and demonstrated true sportsmanship. The grand final match between Gray Puksand (Dribblas) and Geyer (Giants) was also intense and fast. Gray Puksand took out the winning trophy (along with HÅG Capisco chair valued at $1,450 and dinner for four at the prestigious Longrain restaurant).
