Thanks to our partner, ViewSonic, our sponsors, and the Riverside County Office of Education Foundation, high school students and teams participating in Riverside County Esports League tournaments who have submitted their rosters and permissions slips are eligible to win prizes and contributions to a scholarship fund exclusively for their school. Here's how it works:
High school esports clubs and teams (teams) register their teams with the North American Scholastic Esports Federation (NASEF). Be sure to affiliate your team with Riverside County Esports League.
Teams submit their completed rosters and permission slips to RCOE Esports by sharing a Google folder with that information with shickman@rcoe.us, hbaynes@rcoe.us, and ndelgado@rcoe.us with edit privileges.
Register for individual or team tournaments.
Rostered students can register for individual Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournaments. School staff coaches or advisors must register for team tournaments (Rocket League and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Crew Battles).
Win! With some tournaments, when you do so, a minimum of $500 will be contributed to a scholarship fund for which seniors at the winning school may apply. Scholarships of up to $1500 (or the fund balance, if less) to cover education costs will be granted to approved scholarship applications upon verified college enrollment. Distribution will be made directly to the college by the Riverside County Office of Education Foundation.
While we intend is to distribute all scholarship funds to students from the winning schools, funds awarded to a school fund may not carry over into the next school year. Undistributed funds can be added to the general esports scholarship fund or prize pool.
Middle Schools
We're excited to announce that with some tournaments middle school students who win our championship tournaments will be eligible win scholarship contribution through the RCOE Brighter Future Fund (See website for details). For other tournaments, middle school prizes could include gift cards for winners and a minimum $20 Nintendo gift card issued to the student, esports Advisor, or site Principal to support your school's esports program.
