Esports | Varsity

Welcome to Co-ed Varsity Esports!

We are pleased to announce the launch of our esports program. ERA will compete alongside 3000+ high schools nationwide as a part of the High School Esports League (HSEL).

Esports is organized video game competition. Professional esports viewership in the United States rivals traditional sports. It is expected to grow to 84 million by 2021, second only to the NFL in total viewership.*

There are numerous advantages to esports participation. Data collected by Gaming Concepts (esports curriculum developers) show that esports team members have better school attendance (+10%) and earn better grades (GPA +1.7 points) than peers without extracurricular activities. Hundreds of colleges offer esports programs with $16 million dollars in scholarships. 

Registration is open from August 26 through September 12. For more information, please take a look at our FAQ Page and the CATS Student Club Fair presentation.
