Rizk Casino, one of the best online casinos in the United Kingdom and a subsidiary of Gaming Innovation Group (GiG), is pleased to announce that it has entered into a sponsorship deal with the globally operating Finnish ENCE eSports team.

ENCE professional players participate in online gaming tournaments around the globe which include games such as Hearthstone, Overwatch, Starcraft 2, Rainbow Six: Siege and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

The new sponsorship agreement is an appreciative element to Rizk’s recently launched sportsbook where eSports betting is available as the team has considerable experience in eSports.

In terms of the agreement the Rizk logo will be visible on ENCE’s website and merchandise.

With online gambling being illegal for under 18s in a number of countries where fans are based, the online casino’s management jointly decided that it was not appropriate to include the Rizk logo on any merchandise worn by team member Sergej (Jere Salo), who is an under 18 year old player, in order to encourage responsible gambling.

Robin Reed, the Chief Executive Officer of GiG, commented that the partnership with ENCE is a natural fit for their operator Rizk. He added that with rise in popularity of eSports in general and the recent launch of Rizk sportsbook, the timing for this branding opportunity could not have been better.

Reed went on to say that ENCE has a globally renowned team and they are proud to be supporting them through all the tournaments and events that they will be attending this year across the world.
