ESWC Qualifiers Update

The Electronics Sports World Cup(ESWC) finals are coming up soon (June 28th - July 2nd) and the qualifiers have been taking place from the beginning of this year. Contenders are battling it out for a place in Paris Bercy, France at the special venue of Palais Omnisports:

With over 50 countries hosting qualifiers this year there are so many events to choose from. Obviously it'd be quite difficult for me to tell you about everything, and honestly it would make this news article a very boring read indeed. I've therefore chosen what I think to be the most exciting qualifiers and summed them up for you.

Remember there are qualifiers this year for:

• Counter-Strike
• Trackmania Nations - ESWC
• Warcraft III: Frozen Throne
• Pro Evolution Soccer 5
• Gran Turismo 4
• Quake 4
• Counter-Strike Women

Most of the qualifiers are taking place at the end of this month (May) beginning of next (June) so be sure to check the website for news and updates!

The only piece of interesting news I can give to you is that the team representing Norway is Team Aftermath and not NoA. NoA might be attending Dreamhack(Swedish Qualifiers) as i'm not sure if they competed in The Gathering.
