UK esports organisation Team Endpoint have announced their new Rocket League team will be practicing in a gaming house for the next six months.
The team – consisting of Jamie “Tinny” Sparkes, Mitchell “Shakahron” Johnson and Daniel “Cheerio” Bjorklund – will be moving into the house on Friday June 30th.
They will practice for the upcoming Gfinity Elite Series and other tournaments together.
Team Endpoint said they were proud to have ‘one of the UK’s leading Rocket League teams’.
“Not only does this allow the guys to bootcamp and train together, it also gives us as an organisation unrestricted access to be able to document their growth and progression.”
Team Endpoint CEO Adam “Adz” Jessop said: “It is extremely exciting to be able to house our Rocket League team in Sheffield.
