After receiving authority from the UK Government, it was established in June 2016 to help develop the UK's grassroots esports scene and provide an infrastructure to nurture future talent.

[6] British Esports has joined Ukie [7], the Creative Industries Federation [8] and the Sport and Recreation Alliance [9]. Rt. Hon. Ed Vaizey MP joined the Association as Vice Chair in October 2017.
