I love that we're seeing more opportunities for collaboration between sports and esports, and this fan activation at the CEBL Championships has everyone pumped. We love ball, we love 2k, so what could be better than having both while basking in the energy of the championships!
✨It’s @CEBLeague Championships✨ + Esport Canada is in Winnipeg for the party! Stop by our Fan Activation powered by @Lotus8Esports + @ASUS_ROGNA 🏆 for some 🏀2k and your chance to WIN 🎟️🎟️ to Sunday’s Grand Finals! 📍 Street Festival | All weekend

Ready and willing to support and collaborate in any capacity, our primary focus is to ensure Canadians have the opportunity to be represented in competition.
For the second year in a row, Canada will not be represented in #RocketLeague at the #FIFAeWorldCup. We share the disappointment felt by players and fans and remains committed to supporting national participation in future events. Full statement: https://t.co/00mvFAmiAp

We're back! So pumped to be partnering with the French Embassy for this event series again this year. Can't wait to welcome the delegation from France and hopefully catch up with lots of my favourite humans while I'm in Toronto. Who knows a good spot for a casual meetup? 👀
