eSports: The FUSE Cup | We Are The 2024 Mario Kart Grand Final Champions!

After two thrilling days of Mario Kart battles at the FUSE Cup hosted by Canterbury College, today’s Grand Final was nothing short of epic!

Canterbury's Year 10 student Alexander Sayers - last year’s reigning FUSE Cup Mario Kart Deluxe eSports Global Champion, teamed up with the ever-determined Year 9 prodigy Lincoln Homann, to take on the 2024 Mario Kart Grand Final with full throttle.

Four thrilling rounds, intense racing, and plenty of blue-shell drama kept everyone on the edge of their seats.

Despite some tough hits in round two, Alex dialed in with laser focus, pulling off a stunning first-place finish in the final lap!

A massive shout-out to all the South-East Queensland schools who joined the competition - it was an epic two days, with lots of fist-bumps and encouragement to all.
