Team Captains - Biz Dash

Team Captains

We couldn’t do the Biz Dash without the tremendous support of our Team Captains! As the main point of contact between the event staff and your company team, we want to make sure you have all the info you need to stay organized and increase your team participation. Be on the lookout for emails from the St. Louis Sports Commission (info@stlsports.org) as we get closer to the event.

***Being the Team Captain does not automatically register you for the Biz Dash 5K. You will need to go through RunSignUp and register yourself after creating your team.

Reach Out to Us!
If you have questions or need additional information to make your team registration as smooth as possible, please reach out directly to the St. Louis Sports Commission staff through our contact form.

Team starter packs include a set amount of race entries and a discounted team meeting space. A Biz Dash staff member will also set up your team for you and notify you when it's ready for employees to join. It's the one stop shop!
Add To Your Wellness Program!

With health and wellness at the heart of the Biz Dash, it’s a perfect event to add to your company’s wellness program! Looking to recruit more team participants? Talk to your Human Resources department about adding it to the calendar and employees can earn incentive/wellness points by completing the 5K. As communication is sent out company-wide, make sure the Biz Dash 5K is included in those event opportunities. Whether it’s in-person or virtual, it’s a great way to get outside and be active.

Recruitment Tools Now Available!
Choose from a handful of elements to assist in recruiting team members! Copy/paste captions and download graphics for your internal communications.
Team Meeting Spaces
Make sure your team has a spot to hang out, enjoy your food and beverages, and refuel after the race in the Spectrum Team Village. 

 

Team captains can purchase a meeting space either through a Team Starter Pack (which includes a set number of race entries and a discounted team space) or a la carte via the Captain Store in RunSignUp.

 

Team spaces are limited, and reservations will close once they are sold out, even if it is before the deadline. Larger spaces sell out first, so be sure to reserve yours early! Only team captains can select the size of their space. It is recommended that you determine the number of participants on your team before purchasing a team meeting space.

 

Locations will be assigned by the Biz Dash event management once payment is received. The map of team spaces will be released the Saturday before the event.
