Esports News UK founder Dominic Sacco studied at Bournemouth University 12 years ago and went on to work at GamesTM, video game trade publication MCV and edit PC Retail, as well as write freelance for Riot Games, so can offer tips and advice to any budding journalists out there.
If interested, please send a brief email to Dom with a bit of info about yourself and why you want to write for eSports News UK, which games you prefer and an example of written work.
Dom is an award-winning writer and finalist of the Esports Journalist of the Year 2023 award. He graduated from Bournemouth University with a 2:1 degree in Multi-Media Journalism in 2007.
As a long-time gamer having first picked up the NES controller in the late ’80s, he has written for a range of publications including GamesTM, Nintendo Official Magazine, industry publication MCV and others. He worked as head of content for the British Esports Federation up until February 2021, when he stepped back to work full-time on Esports News UK and offer esports consultancy and freelance services. Note: Dom still produces the British Esports newsletter on a freelance basis, so our coverage of British Esports is always kept simple – usually just covering the occasional press release – because of this conflict of interest.
