NASR Esports Acquires Royal Youth

Middle East esports organization NASR Esports has officially acquired Turkish esports team Royal Youth.

As part of the acquisition, Royal Youth will be officially rebranded as NASR Esports Türkiye. The team is currently preparing for the Turkish League of Legends Championship (TCL) 2021 season.

Royal Youth’s management will continue to oversee that day-to-day operations of the team, even after the rebranding.

“In 2020, we took the time to reflect on where we are and where we see ourselves in the future — which is to maintain our position as the most successful esports organization in the region and expand our footprint globally” Lalit Vase, NASR Esports’ Club Director said in an official statement.

“In line with our ambition to grow, we have taken the strategic step of expanding into Turkey with the acquisition of one of Turkey’s best-known teams, Royal Youth.”

“This acquisition will also give MENA League of legends talent a route to showcasing their talent on a global stage.

“NASR ESPORTS will shortly start recruiting more young talent from the MENA region to give them a chance to work with the teams playing in the TCL and have the chance to learn and develop with them.”
