Together with DAIGON Esports, we invited COBIS schools to take part in our first Esports Competition.

Over a number of weeks, students had the opportunity to represent their school and compete against their international peers in 2 games, Minecraft 'Capture the Flag' and Rocket League.  The competition was divided into two age brackets, U12 and U15+.

Thank you to all 90+ teams from 31 schools and 20+ countries for competing!
