Playing a video game is an exciting experience. Games are full of light, sound, action and surprises, and this makes them fun to watch as well as to play. Because of this, more and more people are taking part in eSports. This is the short name for electronic sports-playing video games against other people in competitions. There are huge tournaments all over the world, where big crowds watch matches on giant screens, and millions more watch online.

Just like many normal sports, eSport players usually play in teams, and have fans who follow them through every competition. Prizes for important eSports competitions are very large, and eSports champions can earn more than one million a year. That makes it sound like a great job, but in fact it’s not easy to be a winner. Players have to practice for up to 14 hours a day, so they don’t get much rest. The games they play change often and there are always new things to learn.
