Valor Esports:

CUEL uses VALOR Esports as an online training platform for a variety of titles including Rocket League, Valorant, and Fortnite, and now including Marvel Rivals, SSBU and Mario Kart.

What Is Valor Esports?

Valor Esports is a structured esports training platform that empowers schools to build meaningful, skill-based programs without requiring teachers to be expert gamers. Valor focuses on helping young people grow through teamwork, goal setting, and reflection — using structured drills, leadership rotations, and positive culture-building practices rather than unstructured “free play.”

Training Students Using Valor

Valor provides session structures that help coaches run consistent, meaningful practices:

• Warm-up & Drills (10 min): Students explore technical skills without pressure.

• Challenge Phase (5–10 min): Players are paired using the Buddy System to record performance and feedback.

The Buddy System: Training with Integrity

To ensure honest, accurate skill tracking and privacy compliance, students are paired in two-person teams:

• Player 1 performs the drill.

• Player 2 acts as referee, ensuring proper execution and recording results.

• Players switch roles after each attempt.
  This promotes accountability, teamwork, and early-stage coaching skills while keeping students engaged and responsible for their progress.

Building a Positive Esports Culture

Valor emphasizes that culture is built through consistency. Coaches guide—not carry—students toward growth by:

• Using structure and routines to shape behavior.

• Reinforcing a shared team vision and mission to connect gameplay with purpose.

• Encouraging reflection, leadership rotation, and student voice to strengthen buy-in.

• Celebrating effort, sportsmanship, and progress as much as competition.
