The (Singapore) Cybersports and Online Gaming Association, more commonly known as SCOGA, was setup to develop local gaming communities, through education, to achieve international success and recognition for Singapore in competitive gaming.
In what has been hailed as the equivalent of the cyber Olympics, some of Singapore's best cybergamers will have to fund their own way to represent Singapore at the World Cyber Games (WCG) finals in Cologne, Germany in November 2008. Competing against 800 gamers from 70 countries, the top three winners of the national WCG rounds earn the right to play for their country in their respective games at the world finals, held in a different city each year*.
At least 3 of our Singaporean champs stand a good chance to win a medal at Cologne because they have proven themselves on the regional and international stage before, time and again. However, due to lack of sponsorships, they have to fund their own way to Cologne*.
We feel that this is for Singapore’s glory especially if they return with a medal and appeal to you to help us raise a total of S$30,000 to fly 6 Singaporean champions to represent Singapore in Cologne.
In case our target is not reached, we feel that 3 of these gamers have a good medal chance and priority will be given to them to fly – still, S$15,000 will be needed for air tickets, accomodations, and fees. We appeal to your generousity, and every dollar counts.
Air ticket prices increase with everyday drawing nearer to the international finals and our deadline to raise this money is in September so that we can book the tickets in time.
All donations will be credited in our donors list and 100% of the proceeds** goes to these cyberatheletes.
