MUMBAI: Alcis Sports, an Indian sportswear brand, on Monday announced their association with eSports Federation of India for the 10th edition of the eSports World Championship in Taiwan from 9-11 November this year, IANS reports.
Alcis will be the official kit sponsor of the Indian team for the tournament.

However, for the next edition in 2022, it will be a medal event.
Alcis Sports MD Roshan Baid was quoted as saying to IANS: “eSports is a very new and interesting sport emerging across the world. As a sportswear brand Alcis is very happy to be a partner of the Indian team for 10th eSports World Championship. We would like to thank eSports Federation of India for this wonderful opportunity.”
Team Invictus and Tejan will represent India after emerging as the national champions for Counter Strike: Global Offensive and Tekken7 respectively.
