The American Youth Cooperative for Esports (AYCE) and Harena Data, Inc have announced a partnership with Daytona Soccer Fest to launch a broadcasted FIFA 21 esports tournament at the inaugural event to be held at Daytona International Speedway on July 4th weekend, 2021.
Beginning January 2021 through July 2021, AYCE and Harena Data will compete in a six-month-long series of qualifier tournaments for FIFA 21. The qualifiers will be available to compete virtually or physically. The top players will win an all-expense-paid trip for them and their families to an on-site championship match at Daytona Soccer Fest.
The qualifiers work through a unique point ranking system: two points for a victory, one point for a tie, zero points for a loss.
“Daytona Soccer Fest’s commitment to continuous innovation should come as no surprise,” said Bill Dever, Chairman of AYCE. “We’re honored that Soccer Fest has selected AYCE as its exclusive community aggregator for esports. We’re going to make this July 4th tournament an esports spectacle.”
The program is available to anyone interested in participating. Players can register through their state soccer association’s website.
