ULoLW - League of Legends University of Wollongong

Hello everyone, unfortunately ULoLW did not get enough support at the end of last year and have since ceased as a society. If you are still interested in LoL events around UOW please sign up with the Video Games Association on campus here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/LoLVGA/

We would also like to thank everyone who has supported ULoLW throughout the years, and a special thank you to the Executive/Manager team for putting in their all for this club.

Kind regards,

Dean Ellison
Vice-President - ULoLW (ex)

Sadly Gamefest is over for another year and the post-LAN sag has set in. It was great to see so many faces there for a wonderful event.

Big congratulations to our top 6 LoL teams over both divisions who walked away with $500 in prize money and 40,000 RP.
But well played by everyone involved!! They were some fantastic matches to spectate.

Huge thanks to all who made the effort to come along, we hope that you had fun. And thankyou to the UoW Video Game Association for all of their hard work.

Stay tuned for sign-ups this week for the upcoming Spring Rumble tournament, and notification of our first Monthly LAN of the session (Saturday 26th August).
