14 February 2022: ATG, the Swedish Horse Racing Totaliser Board, has become the latest operator to join the Scout Gaming Network and from today will be offering its customers the chance to take part in a wide range of fantasy sports tournaments with prize pools.
This includes a SEK2.5m Guaranteed Champions League Knockout Tournament where the overall winner will receive a minimum prize of SEK500,000. The launch also includes a number of English Premier League contests with combined prizes of more than SEK1m in the first week alone.
