Students dive into the fundamentals of Esports and explore careers such as team management, marketing, and coaching. Using casual gaming across various titles, they practice collaboration, develop team branding (name, colors, mascot), and create a season plan. These skills mimic real-world business operations in Esports organizations.

In Rocket League, a game requiring precision teamwork and strategy, students simulate roles in Esports team management. They focus on communication, decision-making, and adapting strategies in real time. Off the field, they build skills in business planning, marketing, and audience targeting as they refine their team identity and promotional materials.

Minecraft’s sandbox environment allows students to explore architectural design by building parkour maps and recreating real-world spaces. They connect these challenges to graphic design careers by incorporating branding elements like logos and merch into their projects. Students learn color theory, design software basics, and how to visually market their teams.

Super Smash Bros is a game of fast-paced competitive action and hones reflexes and strategic decision-making under pressure. Students translate these dynamics into cinematic storytelling by creating videos and interviews. They explore editing techniques, narrative crafting, and visual composition to document their Esports journey or highlight industry themes like representation and wellness.

Mario Kart 8 is celebrated for its high-energy gameplay and entertaining commentary opportunities, making it the perfect platform for content creation. Students will explore the art of producing engaging online content, including shoutcasting, gameplay commentary, and video editing. By creating their own content, students will represent their team's personality and build a unique presence leading up to the final event.

As students shift focus from individual teams to the larger tournament, they step into event management roles. Using their graphic design, video production, and music skills, they create promotional materials, trophies, and event branding. Gameplay in their chosen title helps them refine roles such as casters, referees, or tournament coordinators.

The program culminates in a community Esports event, where students showcase their career-aligned skills and competitive growth. The tournament highlights their mastery of gameplay, strategic planning, and creativity in a professional-level experience, celebrating their journey with family and peers.
