We believe that esports is more than just competing. Student opportunities give access to career-driven pathways for students looking to engage with the entire esports ecosystem.

We created the Sapling Initiative to support school clubs that grow, like saplings, into flourishing communities and develop student centric opportunities. Through working together, we hope to make it easier than ever for new clubs to form, and our existing clubs get the support they need to continue for years to come.
