Coming in second place was a group of teachers with their team name "What this isn't speeding dating" they beat out  a group of people from the Oxford Winds Community band, known at this tournament as Oxford Wins in a tiebreaker for second place.

The winning team gets their name on a trophy and an app party from Boston Pizza. Resource Development Manager Liz Wismer Van-Meer says they got a lot of positive feedback from people who attended the event. 

"As people were leaving the event they were thanking us for a fun night out, saying it was perfect, it was great, they had lot's of fun. The food was phenomenal, Mclay's BBQ had some treats for us, pulled pork, pulled chicken, veggie chili and coleslaw and Scott's No Frills provided lot's of snacks for us all well."
