The Melbourne community major event, and one of Australia’s main National tournaments, BAM returns. It will once again

Community help and volunteering:
We’re all volunteers and always appreciate help from people who want to contribute, which in turn helps the whole community. Want to take part and help keep these great events running?
Volunteers are always welcome and needed, from an extra pair of hands transporting or unpacking gear at ranking battles to running brackets and spreading the word
about each event.
Just bringing your friends to play your favourite game is a big help!
