My Project

SHS Esports is working to hold a large-scale annual Esports tournament. Western Nebraska high schools are developing Esports programs but currently have to travel close to 5 hours for in-person tournament experiences. This is not possible for many of the small programs out West. To help legitimize the creation and support of these programs SHS wants to use its resources to hold a large Esports tournament each year, providing an exciting experience for local Esports teams to work toward. If you are interested in helping the SHS Esports program in legitimizing rural programs through our tournament, please consider donating! The production of this tournament is run by students. Lights, sound, commentating, organization, and video production are all curricular areas in which students will practice the skills they learn in class.
