Infinity-eSports Sponsored By AMD & Gainward

Posted by Myers at 18:08 8/9/2002.

Infinity-eSports announced just moments ago at Games Domain that they have two new sponsors. The new sponsors are AMD and Gainward providing them with the latest in their product hardware. This should ensure Infinity-eSports maintain their reputation in the U.K. as the no.1 team to beat.

In a few moments Infinity-eSports will take on old rivals Nocturne on de_train for a spot in the final and a shot at the £4,000 grand prize. As Infinity-eSports are currently warming up for the forementioned game I took the time to speak to DK, who happens to be sitting next to me, about this productive deal.

What are your thoughts on this sponsorship deal for Infinity-eSports

DK - I think the best thing will be that Wrighty can bin his 333AMD and actually be some use to the team online now :p

Truthfully though, It's shows that the UK CS scene can actually attract quality sponsors.

Once the game is over I'll speak to the players that will benefit most from this deal. Expect more information on this deal to appear on this website soon.

	I-eS\|Dave 23:03 8/9/2002	Sponsorship is not all about getting money and hardware. It’s also about getting recognition from companies that you are indeed worthy of their support and assistance. That you are good enough, dedicated enough and skilled enough to deserve such support. To acquire a sponsor is to acquire the respect and support of a company that sees a future in what you do. It’s positive, productive and above all very appreciated. It helps to boost morale, interest and create a wider prospective of things that can be achieved in the future. With a lot of hard work, determination, time and perseverance it proves that if you are willing to put in the effort and have what it takes you will be rewarded for your labour. Sponsorship is not just given away. It is earned! Infinity-eSports earned their sponsorship and I for one am damn proud of that fact! To Infinity and beyond! [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
