Clash of the keyboard warriors
Not every sport is about kicking or hitting a ball - some prefer more sedentary pursuits such as computer games.
For the eleventh year in a row, the Namibian Electronic Sports Association (NESA) hosted its annual LAN event at the Unam gym hall last week.
Namibian gamers competed for cash prizes totalling N$30 000.
The games included FIFA18 and Tekken 7 on PlayStation4, and League of Legends and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on PC.
NESA thanked the sponsors - KIA Motors, Monster Energy, Rocomamas, BDO, Radio Energy 100FM, Future CC, MikelJes Music Productions and Link Media - for being part of the initiative.
“Without their contributions, NamLAN would not be possible. NESA would also like to thank all the volunteers who assisted in making sure that the event ran as smoothly as possible,” the organisers said.
The winners were:
FIFA 18
• Mapenzi Chimana
• Eugene Morkal
