The ever-recurring desire to keep ourselves fully committed to the basics of 'fan culture' made us kick start the 2020 session with a first in a line of off-season activities, that we have kept conducting ever since our inception -The 2nd edition of HB PES tournament.
An applaudable effort and commitment by our team of organizers helped us in seeing all the 128 required slots for the tournament being filled up within 48 hours of the official announcement through our social media handles and an over 250 people showing interest and having registered through the links provided for the same.
The event was organised on the 12th and 13th of April, 2020. As the tournament kick-started let's give a trivia, to begin with - Defending champion Suraj Nepal was knocked out in the 4th round of the HB PES 20 tournament by Shubham Singh who was knocked out by Suraj in the round 2 of the HB PES 19 tournament last year. Revenge taken! The eventual winner, after a tough and gruelling fight for two days through the knock-out format, was Pragalv Kashyap. Suranjoy Singh walked away with the runners-up bounty. Winners are listed below:-
