Generation Esports champions a triad approach to scholastic esports, encapsulating a holistic educational experience that goes beyond the game:
Learn: Students are introduced to the foundational aspects of esports, from the history and culture to the technical skills required to navigate and understand the gaming world.
Practice: Beyond theoretical knowledge, students apply their learning in practical settings, honing their skills in real-world scenarios and collaborative projects.
Compete: The culmination of learning and practice is brought to life through competition, where students test their abilities, learn the value of teamwork, and experience the thrill of esports.
Central to this approach are the Middle School Esports League (MSEL) and the High School Esports League (HSEL), platforms where students can engage in the esports ecosystem at a level that matches their educational and developmental stages.
MSEL: Tailored for the unique needs of middle school students, MSEL provides a nurturing ground for budding esports enthusiasts and learners.
