Esports - Competing Club

E-Sports is an ever-expanded domain of competitive video gaming. Students who participate in the club will
play, as a team, competitively across the country against other High School E-Sports Teams. Each game has its
own competitive leagues, and the game determines the number of students involved. These games are played on
the computer and on the Nintendo Switch. Father Judge currently has League of Legends, Valorant, and Rocket
League for the PC with the goal of adding Rainbow Six Siege in the fall of 2023. We also currently have a Super
Smash Brothers Deluxe and Mario Cart on the Nintendo switches. Even though the club revolves around
competitive video gaming, there are many additional positions and parts played by students. They build, test,
and fix all the computers, TVs, and gaming systems in the room. Students are also coaches and work with the
team members on strategies and advanced gameplay. Even more so, students will be responsible for streaming
the games out to the Father Judge Community and they will even have student shout casters, which are just like
announcers at sports games. Finally, colleges are beginning to offer scholarships for all of these roles around E-
Sports, some of which are Division I schools offering full rides to the best of the best. As the area continues to
expand it will be exciting to see what else can come from this new and developing program.
