The NEL (National Esports Leagues) is a new project by Challengermode that aims to create a system of esport leagues where teams of any skill-level can participate in reliable, well-funded leagues on a national or regional level.

Every national competition within the NEL ecosystem will be a seasonal and permanent esports league for that specific country or region.

The leagues will provide a clear path to the top for professional-gamers-to-be around Europe and eventually the world.

The NEL enables a new and reliable funding model for organizers around
Europe that want to start a national league or are already hosting one.

Every league will be made up of a series of interconnected skill-based divisions within which any number of teams can compete and find their place.
Players, teams, and organizers will use the scalable and automated league system on Challengermode to play and organize.

Current Leagues are:
Finnish Esports League[www.challengermode.com]
Swedish Esports League[www.challengermode.com]
Danish Esports League[www.challengermode.com]
Baltic Esports League[www.challengermode.com]

and many more!
