Celebrating One Year of Ducor Sports

One year ago, on August 1, 2016, Ducor Sports was born — just in time for the Rio Olympics. What a year it’s been. We started Ducor Sports with lofty goals. We didn’t let the scale of the Olympics hold us back, but rather embraced it. What better time to launch a digital sports network? The excitement and sheer sports volume of the Olympics Games kept us hopping those first few weeks and set the stage for a successful debut. We cut our teeth during one of the world’s largest sporting events and haven’t looked back.

We’ve covered countless games, matches, and scrimmages — on and off the field — over the last year, and shared in your joy and sorrow as events have unfolded. We’ve cheered along with you, and have paused more often than not in admiration of the talents of the athletes we cover.
We’ve also dug deep into issues that matter to you and to us. We have been vocal against injustices such as sexual assault, extreme poverty, gender inequality, stampedes, and migrant deaths in the Mediterranean Sea.

As we celebrate our first birthday, we can’t help but feel proud of what we’ve accomplished so far, but humble at the same time. We are honored that you’ve repeatedly come to us for the latest sports coverage, analysis, and opinion and we work hard every single day to keep your trust.

We’re excited to mark this milestone and could not have done it without your loyal support. We fully expect the next year to be even better as we fine-tune our processes and continuously strive for excellence in everything we do.
