Proposed changes 19-FEB-2020
Thank you for your help updating this article.

I have some further suggested amendments:

1. Sorry, I miss-typed the date for the Andy Miah reference. It should have been 2019, not 2020. Amended here:

2. Please can you add the following to the 'Collaborations' section?

The British Esports Association is part of the International_Olympic_Committee's esports and gaming liaison group, the European Esports Federation and the Global Esports Federation.

Thank you.

Company name change - to just British Esports
Hi we have been trying to remove the word Association from our entry (so it should just be British Esports) and also update our logo. This is proof of our name being just British Esports (company number 10038010): https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/10038010 Can you help us please? I am a company Director and CEO. Yours, Chester 2A00:23C7:320E:8C01:50BD:E961:3188:EF4E (talk) 14:27, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

British Esports Association → British Esports – The British Esports Association have now changed their name to just British Esports. I'm an esports teacher and would like to update the info on British Esports to help all esports students in the UK. We do enter teams into the Student Champs, but that is my only connection to British Esports.
