Big Hit; CBA Charity Softball Tournament Raises $10k for Team IMPACT

BOSTON—Eleven teams representing commercial brokerage, architectural and construction firms recently competed in the Commercial Brokers Association’s 2017 Charity Softball Tournament. Taking place at Moakley Park in South Boston, the event raised $10,000 for Team IMPACT.

JLL was the winning team for the third year in a row, with CBRE|New England coming in second. Avison Young, Colliers, Commodore Builders, Cube 3 Studios, J. Calnan & Associates, NAI Hunneman, Newmark Grubb Knight Frank, Transwestern, and Vantage Builders also participated in the games.

Founded in 2011, Team IMPACT improves the quality of life for children facing life-threatening and chronic illnesses by drafting them onto local college athletic teams. Team IMPACT children become an official member of the team from Draft Day through Graduation. They gain great strength, camaraderie, and support from the experience. Simultaneously, the student-athletes gain lessons about courage, resiliency and life perspective that they can’t learn in a classroom.

The tournament ultimately provided an enjoyable setting for leading firms in the industry to come together for a worthy cause.
