Beau calling all gamers
Horsham’s Beau Ladlow believes an online Fortnite gaming event will allow Wimmera adults to connect.
Mr Ladlow, founder of Wimmera program Level Up, said the gaming group had been running in-person youth events ‘for a little while now’ and had requests for adult events also.
“The average age of gamers in Australia is 33 and that tells me there’s a whole group of people in our region who are not connected by a gaming community,” he said.
“Through popular demand we will run a little all-ages Fortnite competition.
“There is a small tokenistic entry fee, which will make up a cash prize pool.”
Mr Ladlow said people wanting to join the competition could do so online by searching @Levelupgamingevents on Facebook.
The first online event will be from 6pm on Monday, with further sessions on November 9, 10 and 11.
Registrations close on Friday.
