  • What We Did in 2022
    Read More

    2020 and 2021 felt like another lifetime, and when 2022 got underway, no-one was sure what the year’s theme would be. We had lost two years of live events, and expectations were pretty low of the full return to venues. After two years of increased online activities, we were geared to keep growing our online offering and a slow return to events. We could not have been more wrong as we look back at how 2022 became the return of the event… in a big way. 

    It all started slowly however. We closed off the Tinkies Takeover online with our mix of esports and engagements, and moved on to the Sapphire Edge Cup for FIFA 22 in February. The online series was sponsored by adidas and featured R20,000 in prizes. Alongside the online tournament, the ACGL crew joined the adidas team for a launch event in February which featured a number of invited FIFA players.
