My Project

Every year, dozens of kids have to be turned away because our eSports lab does not have enough desktop computers to support the interest at our school. Our eSports lab sports 10 gaming desktops. This is barely enough for us to be able to scrimmage, internally, league of Legends. It is our hope that we grow enough to be able to have competitions on our campus. We have the space, we have the desire, we merely lack the equipment!

This addition of more desktops will allow support members to run streams and outreach programs throughout the season allowing for greater access to our students.

Our eSports program is a holistic approach that encompasses all avenues of eSports. Student-driven content creators, game streams, and social media are integral to guiding students into a genuine and fulfilling eSports experience. By having more capable computers, students will be able to explore their interests further without hindering our capacity to continue to be competitive and compete in the high school eSports circuits.
