About Albertslund Gamerz aka A’GamerZ
Albertslund Gamerz with the short name A’GamerZ is a local gaming, esport and production association primarily for the municipality Albertslund and the surrounding area.
The focus are these three sections: casual gaming, serious esport and computer related production. We want to get the gamers out of their bedrooms and play with others face to face to create a social in real life both at and away from keyboard aswell as giving them the possibility to learn and enhance their knowledge and skills by building and customizing their computers, write programs, create games, videos and graphics using computers.
Esport
When gaming becomes a sport and you want to be focused to become the best team player you can get then it is esport.
This branch is just started. The focus is first on League of Legends and Counter Strike: Global Offensive. Later Rocket League and Overwatch could be next.
Our first Counter Strike team A’GZ Five has joined the first official Danish championship in esport eSportligaen. The team ended as number 14 out of 36 teams in the subleague DGU-ligaen.
Hygge gaming
Gaming on computers should be a social activity where you team up with others to finish a game winning over the endboss or get the best result against your opponents.
We encourage our members to play together to also enhance their social skills. And let team mates help each other so the more experienced players help and guide the others.
The goal is to experience the special Danish coziness known as hygge when gaming.

- Building, modding and enhanching hardware like computers and peripherials
