The Rugby World Cup ended on Sunday 28 October after nearly two months of thrills and spills for rugby and sports fans… and nearly two months of fierce competition for the Econocom sweepstake!
From this World Cup’s revelation — the Portuguese side to French heartbreak in the quarterfinal against future winners South Africa, the sixty days of competition took us to the four ends of the country, Bordeaux, Lyon, Marseille and Paris, and were a resounding national success.
The entire Econocom Stories team warmly congratulates the Springboks, four-time World Cup winners following a hard-fought final against New Zealand’s All Blacks.
Just as successful as the tournament’s staging was our sweepstake. Nearly 800 of you took part, another sign of your commitment and pursuit of excellence, day after day, within the group. This dedication was also obvious at the afterwork event specially held for the occasion on 14 September. From Puteaux to Biarritz, Toulouse to Aix-en-Provence, hundreds of you joined in the fun with unfailing enthusiasm. For that too, we want to thank you.
And, since we can’t talk about the sweepstake without revealing the winners, huge congratulations to Alexandra, who takes fifth place with 248 points, Hélène fourth with 249, Grégoire third with 258, Sarah second with 259 and finally William, this year’s overall winner with 260 points! William, who takes away a Nintendo Switch, our top prize, also wanted to share these words: « The two winning predictions that surprised me most were the very first one with France’s victory over the All Blacks, much hoped for but always difficult to achieve on the pitch against a side unbeaten in the group stages since the World Cup started, and the very last one with South Africa in the final, known for its tough and unspectacular defensive game… And at the same time for our challenge, a victory on the finishing line over Sarah (who was always on the podium and even first most of the time): well done, champion!!! »
Congratulations to them and congratulations to you!
See you in four years.
