The e/Sports and Fitness initiative is a segment within Global Encounters, a Jubilee Games program. It promotes a culture of athletic excellence and mental wellbeing within the global context, strengthens community identity and engagement, and enhances awareness. In 2020, the Ismaili e/Football Cup was the first e/Sports initiative and supported similar objectives.
Following the ethos of the e/Sports brand, the e/Chess tournament, is being offered in both competitive and non-competitive formats, providing an opportunity for players to participate from a varying range of expertise.
