Monday 26th July 2010 - Xbox Tournament: Pro Evo 10
Our first ever YCP Gaming Tournament proved to be a huge success as Pro Evo 10 provided great goals, super saves and a good helping of controversy. Played through projectors in Rooms 1 and 2 in the Civic Suite this was a really fun gaming experience and one we'll hopefully be repeating. Thanks to everyone for your patience with us setting this event up and congratulations to our tournament winner Sinclair Springer.
