Special Effect Football all teams 26

20 Teams, 4 Groups, 1 winner.

Universally Speaking attended SpecialEffect's Football 5s' Tournament in Liverpool to show support for their wonderful charity and to have some fun too. This was our second time taking part and the team had a blast! Unfortunately we didn't go as far this year, placing second of their groups and getting knocked out in the play offs for a place in the quarter finals, but our team played their hearts off and should be proud of amazing effort. Special shout out to Robert Gibbs, Senior FQA Tester - your goalie skills that day were no joke! 
 
It was great to see the industry come together in support of SpecialEffect and the incredible work they do to help people discover the joy of gaming. We hope we can support them again next year, we've got our eyes on that cup trophy!

We’ve worked with other vendors before, but the difference here was the level of ownership they showed. Bugs weren’t just logged—they came with context, insight, and often a solution. It felt less like outsourcing and more like having a trusted squad plugged right into our pipeline.
