EduCup 2020
Keeping young minds sharp on and off the field or ice, through education and friendly competition.
About EduCup
As communities come together to support each other through this challenging time, sports and sports leagues have a critical and unique role to play helping parents feel secure and keeping students engaged with their studies. EduCup harnesses the spirit of competition by challenging students to use one (or more!) of the eight digital courses co-created by EVERFI, professional sports leagues, and partners to showcase their knowledge through a series of related social media challenges.
These courses cover a variety of topics including STEM, character development, math and reading, community engagement, and more! Competitions will be based on the student’s region; all regions will include teams from each league. Students have the opportunity to win a $2,500 college scholarship or another prize by participating
