The Antwerp Aces are born

Written by coldo at 2009-06-23 23:10:51.

Just a moment ago Tek9 announced that they will no longer be hosting any gaming teams but that they will be fully concentrating at running its community perspective. Along with this decision Gamevibes BVBA announced the release of a brand new gaming organization, the Antwerp Aces.

With the growth of the website of TEK9 into one of the largest portals for Call of Duty related news and coverage, the orientation for the teams and players didn’t fit the overall profile of TEK9 anymore. The former teams and players of Tek9 will now be housed in the ANTWERP ACES organization along with a brand new Counter-Strike Source team previously known as

LaCuna, a DOTA team, a Trackmania player know as

EnjOy and a Quake Live player known as

xephyr.

Gamevibes' perspective about the Antwerp Aces

The concept of the Antwerp Aces is very simple. Go local! Antwerp will be the obvious home of the Antwerp Aces and we will have a club house in the centre of Antwerp as part of Outpost Antwerp, the LAN centre mostly known internationally for the Outpost on Fire events held there. Outpost will also become a title sponsor of the Antwerp Aces. From this club house, we will organize monthly events at which everyone is welcome: fans, local supporters and gaming enthusiasts alike.

These monthly events will be a celebration of gaming, both competitive and casual. Small competitions will be accompanied by beers and food and the release of the latest CHIEF magazine before it even hits the shelves. You will be able to see unreleased footage of new games and the events will also feature a new game release each month, you might even be able to play unreleased games in exclusive preview. All this will be taken care of by our second title sponsor CHIEF gaming magazine. Expect the first events somewhere in September!

Statement Sam Janssens, Manager of the Antwerp Aces:

It’s been a while since we’ve had any good gaming related initiatives in Belgium, but today I present you the Antwerp Aces gaming club. Another gaming team you’ll think, but the Antwerp Aces club is more than that! We will bring you a lot of action starting the fourth quarter of 2009 but more news about that will be published later on. Besides the action you will see the presence of our teams at events across the Benelux and regularly in our clubhouse Outpost in Antwerp where a lot of the action will take place. We will announce regular get-togethers and everyone is welcome to join us in some gaming fun! Besides that we will be backed up by our long time partner and gaming magazine CHIEF to take this new project to the next level.

Dfiance wishes Tek9 and the Antwerp Aces all the luck they need to succeed in their goals.
