Comfortable Seating: Help Our Esports Team!

Help me give my students comfortable seating to practice and compete in Esports.

FULLY FUNDED! Coach Brower's classroom raised $1,707

This project is fully funded

My Project

We are creating this project to help our players have more comfortable seating during practices and matches. Currently, our players are sitting on hard chairs that are the same ones they use in the classroom. Because of this, it gives students the mindset of a school or classroom setting. Our goal is to help the Esports room to be set apart, just like traditional sports, to increase players mindset in being a part of a scholastic team instead of just being in the same class with others.

Having better seating will help improve morale and increase the look of professionality to the team.
