HIGH SCHOOL LEAGUE
This season was huge for Mainstage. Before starting we announced our broadening reach into 3 new states (FL, CT, and WV). This allowed us to double our school participation from 19 to 40+ overall.
Along with growing our league size, we grew our sponsorship portfolio adding Bundil, a company allowing users to invest spare change from card purchases into crypto, We Think Inc., a tool focused on self-improvement and social growth, and a headlining sponsor from HYPERX!!
HyperX provided us with tons of hardware such as gaming mice, gaming keyboards, headsets, mics, and more. We gave away this elite HyperX gear throughout the season to participating student gamers that engaged in our community through playing matches, joining community nights, and watching our streams. We are extremely thankful to work with such an incredible name in the industry and we are thankful for their dedication to bringing the highest quality products to our club teams!
High School League Season Results
This year, we are proud to have given out over $10,000 in scholarships and prizes to our players! We had so much fun and are excited to announce our OVERALL SPRING 2022 CHAMPIONS:
GAME CHAMPIONS SPRING 2022:
Although it won’t happen every year, we thought it was great to see each state with a participating high school have a team that took a top 3 spot in at least one game. We’re excited to crunch the numbers and share insights from this year, but location aside, we are not backing down from our mission to create accessible opportunities for gamers everywhere!
Shout out to all our student team & individual game champions this year!
