What is the ePremier League College Invitational?

Each regional event will have 32 students competing in an EA FC 24 (Rated E for everyone) round-robin tournament. The winners of each regional tournament will then compete in the Finals held at the Premier League Mornings Live Fan Fest on April 6-7 in Nashville, Tenn.

When is it?

The regional tournaments will be held on Saturday, March 23 and the Finals will be held the weekend of April 6-7 during Premier League Mornings Live Fan Fest

Where is it?

The regional tournaments will be held at (6) college campuses in the U.S.

  • University of Texas at Austin (Austin, Texas)
