Case Study
GCFF
A multi-title esports platform built to centralize tournament operations, grow federation visibility, and keep competition data live across the public experience
GCFF solves a common federation problem: competitions, match operations, player identity, editorial updates, and admin control often live in separate tools, which makes the public experience feel fragmented and the internal workflow slow. The platform brings them together in one production-ready environment across EA SPORTS FC, Rocket League, eFootball, Football Manager, and eFootball Mobile.
Give the federation one public destination for competitions, matches, players, teams, and official updates across every supported title
Replace fragmented tournament operations with one control layer for events, fixtures, content, moderation, and permissions
Keep public event pages current by pushing completed results directly into standings, brackets, and player statistics
Overview
What this system had to solve before it could work at scale
The pain point was not just publishing tournaments. It was the operational mess behind them: fragmented fixtures, manual bracket progression, disconnected player and team information, weak federation visibility, and too much admin overhead to keep public pages current. GCFF solves that by structuring the federation as one connected ecosystem, where visitors can discover competitions, follow matches, explore players and teams, read official news, and manage accounts while organizers control tournaments, fixtures, content, moderation, permissions, and automation from one centralized back office.

Next Step
Use this as the foundation for more case studies
The route is dynamic, so future client pages can reuse the same structure and only swap the content entry. GCFF now lives in that shared system.
