After a trial run last year in 2011/2012, the Collegiate Star League is returning to Europe with the CSL:EU. Taking inspiration from the North American CSL format, the CSL:EU is looking to establish itself as the premier student based competition in Europe. The season itself will run from November through the academic year and registration will begin in a couple of weeks. In the meantime, we need more helpful people to volunteer for our staff as we try and expand the competition.



Last year saw a United Kingdom only competition run from October to March and a European wide event from April onwards. While the UK event was a success ending with victory for University of West London over Canterbury Christ Church, the next season proved too much for our small staff to handle. A mixture of lack of admins, poor advertising and the complexities of running a competition across a region of many different languages at a time of final exams caused it to end unfinished. Nevertheless we have learnt from the mistakes and are planning on returning bigger and better than ever.



With that in mind, we need your help! We are looking to recruit a number of volunteer staff to help with a wide range of roles. We are looking to recruit from across Europe which means we are particularly keen to get non-English speakers. We currently only have English and German speaking staff and need to change that. We are especially looking for native speakers of Russian, French, Italian and Spanish but any European language is a plus. Do not be put off if you only speak English or German as we are looking for anyone willing to help.

We are looking to recruit in the following areas;

Graphic Designer - We need people to make banners for news stories, our website look pretty and introduction screens for casted matches. Please submit examples of your portfolio with your application.



Tournament Administrator - We are looking for people able to help organise the weekly matches of the regular season as well as other events we are planning over the year.



Marketing and promotion - We need a dedicated individual to help promote the CSL around Europe. This special individual will help any regional admins to advertise via facebook, forums and will be in charge of arranging sponsorship. He or she will also be responsible for the highly regarded CSL:EU twitter account and the yet to be created facebook page.



Content Writer - Anyone with an interest in writing match reports or news articles for matches is welcome. We are looking for people capable of writing regularly to give the community news to read and build hype for matches. No previous e-sports writing is necessary but you will need to maintain a professional standard so including examples of past written work will greatly help your application.



College and University liaison - We need people able to help students who want to setup teams and societies and need a helping hand. Ideally this would be someone with experience setting up a college society either in Europe or North America.



Casters - We need casters! We will hopefully have room for as many casters as possible. Casting experience is of course ideal but please send in an application if you are interested in learning to cast as we may be able to pair you up with a co-caster. In particular we are looking for non-English casters to reach out beyond the UK and Scandinavia so don’t be put off if you would to prefer to cast in your native language. Please send examples of you casting along with details of casting experience to the email below.



If you have any questions feel free to ask below, I will try and answer most questions in the thread and update this post accordingly. If you are interested in helping out, please get in contact. We are particularly interested in co-ordinating with other European events. Either PM me here or email the CSL:EU at eu@cstarleague.com
