Prove your worth.
Find your people.
Proving Grounds brings people together through gaming, with roots in Singapore and an interest in the wider Southeast Asian scene.
Why we're hereEvery scene starts
Every scene starts
with people
showing up.
Some come to compete. Others turn up to support a friend, watch a good match or find people who understand the game.
Proving Grounds creates opportunities for those connections through grassroots esports tournaments and community activity. Testament Cup is our flagship tournament series.
Our aim is to make the step from playing at home to taking part in the scene feel more approachable — and to give organisations a way to support that community.
Participation
A place to start.
Make competitive gaming more approachable for people taking their first steps.
Connection
A reason to return.
Build relationships that last beyond one match or tournament.
Partnership
Something shared.
Help organisations contribute to experiences the community values.
For the full Our Story page: add confirmed founding milestones, the team's names and roles, and specific examples from the event archive.
