Under the terms of the deal, the bookmaker Parimatch will become the general partner of the Ukrainian E-sport Federation USEF. Parimatch will represent the federation at the CS: GO and Dota 2 tournaments. Eldorado was also chosen as the general partner of the event.
The winners of the tournament will receive a prize fund of 30 thousand euros. Additionally, the event will allocate 15 thousand euros for gaming PCs and accessories. The online part of the tournament will take place from July 17 to October 3. The grand final will take place at the WePlay Esports Arena in Kyiv in mid-October. The exact date has not yet been announced.
Since 2018, UESF has hosted 300 national and international tournaments. The demand for esports was so great that the Ministry of Youth and Sports of Ukraine officially recognized this industry as a sport. The year 2021 has become very effective for Parimatch - the bookmaker has signed a contract to expand partnerships with eSports clubs Virtus.pro and Team Spirit. The bookmaker has also appointed Marcelo "coldzera" David as its global esports ambassador.
