My students are engaged in school and learning the value of teamwork like never before. Video games are often viewed as a solitary process where the competitors are quirky and antisocial. These games are an excellent conduit for creativity, dexterity, and teamwork. In my club, students are gaining the skills of traditional sports while doing something that they love. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, on the Nintendo Switch, is an excellent game to get into for eSports. The rules and game play are simple, but mastery of the game takes many hours. Most of my students' families do not have the money to purchase all the items requested to learn and train at home. In my club, students can come to a controlled, safe environment after school to continue to hone their skills. By gaining a Nintendo Switch, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and Gamecube accessories, students will be able to focus on staying in school, while also keeping their grades up to participate. We hope to continue to grow our player base and eventually have trophies hanging in our trophy case.
