Today, we’re proud to announce an official sponsorship of CLG Red which includes CLG’s CS:GO Team, and female players and content creators in Valorant and Chess,” said Peter Kingsley, CMO at Logitech G.

“In selecting a partner who will become so deeply ingrained in both CLG and our Red Team, one of our key considerations was that organization’s alignment with our values,” said Dan Fleeter, COO, CLG. “We are committed to growing professional women’s esports, which should be a goal for the entire esports community, and we are so pleased that Logitech shares that vision with CLG. I’m excited to see what we build together”
