Given the growing demand by UTS students over the past months, I have taken the initiative to start StarSoc in order to bring all SC2 enthusiasts together. The society is new and we here at UTS wants to play a part in the expansion of eSports in Sydney and eventually around Australia.
Who We Want
- As long as you love SC2, we want you.
- Students from all universities across Sydney are welcome to join us.
- Players of all levels. Whether you're at the bottom of Bronze or top of Masters, we want you to join us to learn, improve and have fun.
Current Status
Currently I'm trying to get affiliated with the UTS Union to get the club officially rolling. All UTS students are welcome to send me a PM with any questions/concerns.
***We need at least 15 UTS students that are guaranteed to join the society before I can pass the information to the UTS Union to be considered for affiliation. So please spread the word guys. We currently have 7 members so I'm hoping we can rally ~10 more UTS Students. Cheers!
