This is the first year we have been invited to multiple D1 (Athletics Definition) university events. We are only in September and we have 2 leagues and 2 invitationals with the criteria of D1 classification and 2 of which also introduce the “Power” distinction on top of it. Our philosophy with team involvements is that they have autonomy in choosing their league and tournament affiliations and attendances based on their own fundraising, time availability, and desire.
Our leadership purely presents the opportunity and then the highest form of leadership for each development has the final say. This is also how we have always decided on what teams we were going to create and endorse for elevation as well. Student originator and champion, develop policy, execute good decorum, done. That is why you will see traditional titles like Overwatch, League of Legends, and Rocket League in our lineup right next to Splatoon, Apex Legends, and Mario Kart.
This year NECC added “Project 1” a D1 (Athletics Definition) league for League of Legends, Valorant, Overwatch, and Smash. All 4 OU teams committed to it dropping NECC non D1 leagues. Several of our titles around the more popular titles have converted already into 50:50 or more than 50% bias towards D1 (Athletics Definition) leagues for the 2024-2025 school year. We thank you all for your continued support!
