IESF Forms Athletes Committee

The International Esports Federation (IESF) has formed the IESF Athletes Committee.
The Committee will be the voice of Esports Athletes (players) placing the protections of players’ interests as their top priority while ensuring IESF stays rooted and in touch with the interests of players with continuous cooperation.
Tiffini Lim, Chairperson of IESF Athletes Committee, said: “Today the term ‘Esports player’ already means something very different than it did a decade ago, yet we still have many prevalent systemic issues regarding player rights – organizers get away with unpaid prize monies, and players sign uneven contracts and get exploited unknowingly. As ex- and current competitive players we have encountered our fair share of issues, and thus we are able to share our experiences so our fellow players don’t have to run into the same walls as we did. We will do everything within our capacity to provide a safe avenue for players to seek help from.”
The IESF Athletes Committee is composed of diverse backgrounds, countries and regions covering different game titles.
