Retailer GAME is on the lookout for people to cast a new CSGO open tournament.
GAME member of staff Will Price posted in the UK CSGO Scene Facebook group: “We are looking for anyone who is up for the job. If you are able to get to the Trafford Centre to cast live from our store then that would be even better.”
The CSGO tournament gets underway on March 4th and will take place at one of GAME’s new ‘Belong’ stores in Manchester. It’s starting with online qualifiers, while the semi-finals and finals will be hosted at the store.

To enter, players need to each have a GAME membership card and pay £10 in their local GAME store.
The main prizes are still to be confirmed, though each entrant is entered into a draw to win a random £50 skin.
Some of the games will be livestreamed on GAME Trafford’s Twitch channel.
GAME opened its new ‘Belong’ stores with competitive gaming zones back in December, and is charging customers £5 to £8 an hour to rent out the areas.
Full details and sign-up info can be found on this Challonge page.
