Fifa 10 Tournament Details

Due to popular demand, the Fifa 11 'First Look Tour' dates have changed to august, however we didn't want to disappoint any fifa football fans, so we've managed to get some exclusive prizes to give away in what will be our last tournament for Fifa 10. What better way to welcome in Fifa 11 than to host a tournament for Fifa 10, the game that redefined the genre!

We've teamed up with EA Sports to bring you this special tournament. It will be hosted in three of our gamerbase venues on the following dates; Glasgow (July 20th), Manchester (July 21st) and Reading (July 23rd). We will use a single elimination tournament structure, where we randomly place players that register into a 64 man bracket, and they play until we have one champion!

If you have already signed up for the Fifa 11 tour dates in August, we'll give you priority over anyone else for signing up for the tournament, to register for the event - please click the appropriate event you would like to attend below and register on the tournament page.
