Our Esports Select teams give Techies the opportunity to compete while also learning teamwork, social skills, self confidence, winning and losing with grace, better coordination, and gives community to kids who don’t love traditional sports.
It’s so much more than Techies playing video games – they learn how to stream, shoutcast, and be introduced to a variety of exciting future STEAM careers. Techies will play age appropriate games and have the opportunity to compete against other kids their age.
