Green Wave Esports is dedicated to recognizing the exceptional achievements of our student-athletes in competition, teamwork, and academics. Varsity letters are awarded to team members who consistently demonstrate excellence in these areas.
Eligibility Requirements:
To be eligible for a varsity letter in esports, a student must meet ALL of the following criteria:
- Playoff Qualification: Qualify for the Champion bracket in either the High School Esports League (HSEL) or the Youth World Cup (YWC) playoffs. This demonstrates a high level of skill and competitive success.
- Consistent Participation: Participate in at least 50% of official matches throughout the season. This ensures active involvement and commitment to the team.
- Academic Eligibility: Maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0. Academic success is a priority for all of our students.
- Positive Team Contribution: Maintain a positive attitude, demonstrate good sportsmanship, and actively support teammates. Esports is a team sport, and positive contributions are essential to success.
Alternative Paths to a Varsity Letter:
If a student does not meet all of the above criteria, they may also earn a varsity letter through the following:
- Coach Recommendation: Receive a recommendation from the esports team coach based on exceptional contributions to the team, such as leadership, mentorship, or strategic analysis.
- Years of Service: Complete at least 3 years of service as a member of the Green Wave Esports club/team, demonstrating long-term commitment and dedication to the program.
Important Notes:
- All varsity letter requirements must be met within a single academic year.
- Students who do not meet all of the primary criteria may still be awarded a varsity letter if they fulfill one of the alternative paths.
- Varsity letter awards will be presented at the end-of-year Green Wave Esports event.
