Dear Summerville High Parents,
Following a successful inaugural year of competitive gaming, the Green Wave Esports program is excited to build upon our accomplishments and foster an even larger and more dynamic community in the 2024-2025 season. Last year, our program grew to over 100 students involved in our gaming club, with teams qualifying for playoffs in seven different games. We are particularly proud of our Rocket League team winning the Fall Major Gold Bracket and Kevin B. for clinching the Brawlhalla National Championship in Kansas City this summer. These achievements reflect the dedication, teamwork, and skill of our students.
This year, Green Wave Esports will continue to uphold its mission: to provide a supportive community for all students, cultivating a passion for gaming, teamwork, and personal growth while striving for competitive success. We are committed to maintaining high standards both academically and professionally, emphasizing sportsmanship, respect for others, communication, dedication, integrity, and responsibility. Our coaching staff is dedicated to nurturing these qualities in our student-athletes, ensuring they grow as players and individuals.
To participate in Green Wave Esports, students must meet the following requirements:
• Be currently enrolled at SHS and on pace to graduate.
• Maintain at least a 70 in every class (checked at the end of each quarter).
o Grades will be checked regularly.
o Any grade below a 70 at interims will result in probation.
• Have no suspensions or major referrals.
We are confident that this season will be even more successful than the last, and we welcome your continued support in fostering a thriving esports community at Summerville High. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
Thank you for your ongoing support of Green Wave Esports!
