Lahden ammattikor- keakoulun (LAMK) POSITIIVINEN KIERRE -hanke keskittyy elektronisen urheilun mahdollisuuksien tunnistamiseen ja eSports-toiminnan kehittämiseen urheiluseu- roissa. Opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena oli kartoittaa ja kehittää urheiluseurojen eSports- osaamista. Tavoitteena oli saada aikaan kehittämissuunnitelma, jonka avulla urheilu- seurat pystyvät alkamaan e-urheiluun liittyvän osaamisensa kehittämisen. E-urhei- lussa on urheiluseuroille selkeä mahdollisuus laajentaa toimintaansa ja saada lisää harrastajia muuhunkin toimintaansa, onhan e-urheilu maailmanlaajuinen ja jatkuvasti kasvava ilmiö ja uusi urheilumuoto. Teoria sekä osaamisen kehittämisen lukujen tieto hankittiin alan kirjallisuutta, artikke- leita, dokumentteja, blogeja, nettisivuja ja podcasteja hyödyntäen. Olen täydentänyt teoria tietoa omilla näkemyksilläni. Tutkimusmenetelmänä käytettiin kvalitatiivisia tut- kimusmenetelmiä. Empiria-osuudessa käytettiin kyselyistä saatuja vastauksia. Kyselyt lähetettiin hankkeessa mukana oleville tahoille, sekä alalla työskenteleville ammattilai- sille, ja Suomen suurimpaan harrastelijoiden Facebook-ryhmään Gamers United – Finlandiin. Näillä menetelmillä saatiin monipuolinen näkemys e-urheilusta ja sen ke- hittämisestä. Tutkimuksen tuloksena syntyi monialainen kehitysohjelma ja hankkeessa mukana olevien tahojen nykytilakatsaus. Tutkimuksen avulla selvitettiin, mitä osaamista pai- kallisilla urheiluseuroilla on, ja mitä osaamista he tarvitsevat aloittaakseen monialai- sen e-urheilutoiminnan ja sen kehittämisen. Asiasanat E-urheilu, osaaminen, kehittäminen, monialainen Abstract Author(s) Thesis Published 17.1.2019 Holopainen Olli Bachelor’s thesis Autumn or Spring 54 pages three pages of appen- dices (digit numbers, e.g., 36) The Positive spin - eSports business and welfare project Case: Identifying and developing sport clubs eSports skills Bachelor’s Degree in Management and Communications Abstract The thesis was written as part of the Positive Spin e-sports and welfare project, funded by the Amer Cultural Foundation 2018–2021. At Lahti University of Applied Sciences, the Positive spin project focuses on identifying the potential of eSports and developing e-sports activities in sports clubs. The purpose of this thesis was to map and develop the e-sports competences of local sports clubs. The goal was to create a development plan that will enable sports clubs to start developing their e-sports competences. In e-sports, sports clubs have a clear opportunity to expand their activ- ities and get more enthusiasts to their other activities. After all, e-sports is a global and ever-growing phenomenon and a new form of sport. The research framework was created based on using literature, articles, document movies, blogs, websites, and podcasts. The empirical part of the thesis was con- ducted by applying a qualitative research method. Data was collected by question- naires. The questionnaires were sent to the participants of the project, to profession- als working in the field, and to Finland's largest amateur e-sport group in Facebook. These methods provided a comprehensive view of e-sports and its development. As a result, the study produced multidisciplinary development program and a review of the current state of the involved parties. The study was used to find out what com- petences the local sports clubs have and what competences they need to start a multi-disciplinary e-sports activity and its development.

Hankkeen rahoittaa Amerin kulttuurisäätiö vuodet 2018 – 2021. Lahden ammat- tikorkeakoulun (LAMK) POSITIIVINEN KIERRE -hanke keskittyy elektronisen urheilun mahdollisuuksien tunnistamiseen ja eSports-toiminnan kehittämiseen urheiluseuroissa. Hanketta ovat suunnitelleet päijäthämäläiset urheiluseurat, joita ovat FC Lahti, Lahti Bas- ketball, Pelicans Oy, Pelicans Sb, ENCE-ammattipelitalli, ja seurat ovat myös hankkeen kohderyhmänä. Myös Pajulahden urheiluopisto on ollut mukana valmistelemassa sekä kohderyhmänä. (Positiivinen kierre 2018.) Maailmalla eSports-joukkueita syntyy kovaa vauhtia, mm. jalkapallossa FIFA:n osalta Eu- roopan huippu joukkueilla, kuten PSG ja Barcelona, on omat eSports-joukkueensa (Psg- esports 2016; Cooke 2018; Desjardins 2018). Myös ensimmäiset suomalaiset urheiluseu- rat ovat laajentamassa toimintaansa elektroniseen urheiluun. Lahti monipuolisena urheilu- kaupunkina on yksi ensimmäisistä mukana eSportsin saralla. FC Lahti on Seinäjoen jalka- pallokerhon jälkeen toinen Veikkausliigajoukkue, joka on laajentanut elektroniseen urhei- luun ja nyt myös Lahti Basketball on kehittämässä omaa toimintaansa elektronisen urhei- lun suuntaan. (Sjk esports 2017; Suonio 2018.) Lahdessa oli myös suunnitteilla elektroni- sen urheilun baari (PLAYS eSports BAR), joka ei toteutunut (Autere 2018). Maailmalla e-urheilu-toiminnan kehittäminen on avannut uusia liiketoimintamahdollisuuk- sia urheiluseuroille. Kokonaisuudesssaan eSports-toiminta on kuitenkin vielä melko uutta Suomessa ja urheiluseurat tarvitsevat sekä eSports-toiminnan käynnistämisen että sen kehittämisen tueksi tietoa e-urheilusta, siihen liittyvistä mahdollisuuksista, haasteista sekä vaikutuksista. (Positiivinen kierre 2018.) Maailmanlaajuisesti elektronisen urheilun liiketoi- minnan on arvioitu nousevan yli kahteen miljardiin euroon vuonna 2018. Suurimpien yksit- täisten turnausten palkinnotkin ovat jo useita miljoonia euroja.

  • DALLAS "We're Following White Fox As He Makes His Way Around
    DALLAS "We're following White Fox as he makes his way around the corner," comes the play-by-play commentary in the hushed-but-tense voice of sportscaster Tim 'Gunslinger' Lakin. "They really haven't had the need to go into the water-access area yet, the front door entrance is working fine." The play is quick, the players' reflexes even quicker as they adjust strategies in millisecond calculations. They may not break a sweat, but the competitors here at the Cyberathlete Professional League (CPL) Tournament say they are the athletes of the new millennium. And like 18-year-old Kyle "Ksharp" Miller, they may not eat anything special for breakfast, but they train all year with the intensity of a Tiger Woods. His Team 3D is just one of the 100 five- man teams from more than 30 countries who gathered - in person - to play multiplayer online games. An audience of some 3,000 fellow players and fans watched on big screens, as on-air shoutcasts (Internet radio) provided play-by-play and color commentary. The purse? $200,000 cash (and all the Papa John's pizza you can eat on-site). Unless you're a member of the joystick generation, you've probably never heard of the CPL games. But event organizers and sponsors are convinced that, like the X-Games before them, these are the games of the new generation. And as this group grows up, the games will grow with them. Next summer's games are already scheduled for a venue twice as large to hold an audience that more than doubles with each event.

    MANUAL About The SteelSeries Siberia Neckband Headset is the first circumaural neckband headset created for professional gaming. The new professional gaming headset is optimised for use with personal computers while offering “street-style” functionality for use with MP3 players and other digital devices. Professional gamers from a number of major international gaming organisations took part in the development and fine-tuning of this headset, including some of the biggest names in eSports: SK Gaming, Team 3D and compLexity. This is the first SteelSeries Siberia product to feature the trademark pull-out microphone system found in most other gaming headsets from SteelSeries. The comfort and soundscape in the SteelSeries Siberia Neckband Headset were fine-tuned with the help of professional gamers, electronic DJs and rock musicians. The combined input and feedback from this broad spectrum of discerning audiophiles helped create a soundscape optimised for a multitude of uses. Final sound optimisations for gaming were made with the help of SpawN, one of the world’s most accomplished Counter-Strike players, with more than a dozen major international grand-slam championship titles as well as “Best of Class” awards from leading eSport sites in 2004, 2005 and 2006. Informations Le casque Neckband Siberia de SteelSeries est le premier casque tour de cou circum-auriculaire créé pour les joueurs professionnels. Le nouveau casque de jeu professionnel est optimalisé pour une utilisation avec des PC, et offre une fonctionnalité « street-style » pour utiliser des lecteurs MP3 et autres dispositifs numériques. Les gamers professionnels d’un certain nombre de grandes organisations de jeu internationales ont pris part dans le développement et la précision de syntonisation de ce casque, même les plus grands noms d’eSports : SK Gaming, Team 3D et compLexity.
