“We’re thrilled to team up with the world’s most renowned football league, and help them create, develop and deliver this season’s ePremier League,” BLAST’s MD of Development Leo Matlock said. “We’re excited at the prospect of engaging with fans from all 20 clubs as they compete to represent their favorite team at the live Grand Finals.”
