We are delighted to form a partnership alongside Lees-McRae College as our focuses and beliefs are very aligned.

With over 1,000 current students at the college, we hope to attract more students that have an interest in gaming and esports, and work alongside their staff into growing future stars just like they have previously had with their sports/athletics alumni.
