It could open up an entire career path.
Irish esports organisation, WYLDE, and Belfast Met have teamed up to provide free summer camps to girls aged between 15 and 18 years in Cork and Belfast.
The three-day esports camp, from August 14th to 16th, promises a thrilling mix of gaming, coaching, competitions, professional player talks as well as industry leader insights.
