Safety and health are an important part of our everyday lives. It is very important for all of us to practice good health and follow protocol in order to make sure that we all live long and healthy lives. The Denver Broncos know this and have decided to take action involving a big time partner.
The team announced on Thursday that the team is partnering up with the University of Colorado Health in order to encourage and help the fans understand how to keep on tabs with the health of those in the Rocky Mountain region. As part of their partnership, the Broncos have officially named their practice facilities to UCHealth Training Center.

The name of the practice facility was announced Thursday morning and is a huge step towards teaching the fans the importance of health. Joe Ellis went on to say that, “This is an important partnership as we are committed to helping communities and encourage fans to be active and focus on their health.”
The University of Colorado Health will also be a part of the Health and Wellness Expo that will be launched during the Broncos’ Back to Football 7K, which will take place the weekend prior to the start of the team’s regular season kickoff against the Baltimore Ravens.
This is a huge step for the Broncos and the University of Colorado Health in making sure that all the communities and fans are keeping a close eye on their health. For those who do not know, UCHealth is a Colorado-based non-profit system of five hospitals, over 100 clinics, and over 15,000 employees that specializes in close to home health care for patients throughout Colorado, southern Wyoming, and western Nebraska.
The Broncos might have made few moves during the offseason, but the work that they have done outside of football deserves much recognition as well. Tip of the hat to the Broncos organization for their hard work off of the field during the 2015 offseason.
