Time has come again for a brand new season of competitive Rocket League!
Sign ups are now open to all WPI students. We have had up to 6 different concurrent RL teams in the past, so no matter what rank you are, we will most likely have a spot for you. We play competitively in NECC, a league with multiple different brackets, to ensure that teams are evenly matched. Because we have a new Competitive Manager for RL (@yoyo.4444), all returning players who want to participate in this season need to fill out the form, even if you already know the team you are going to be on.

Kickoff
Exec is very happy to announce our first event of the year, the first (hopefully annual) WPI Esports Kickoff! This will be a chance to everyone to meet other players, talk to exec, and learn more about the club. And eat free pizza. This is open to anyone, whether or not they’re interested in playing on a team.
Kickoff will start at 3pm on August 31st, in the East Hall lounge + Esports Lab. We’ll have a variety of mini-tournaments for different games to help people get familiar with the new space. At 4pm, we’ll do a lil introduction + official kickoff, and then more gaming until the pizza arrives.
We’re really excited to do this and hope it can be the start of a great new tradition, so please stop by, bring your friends, and have a good time!
Signups will close at 11:59 on 9/15. All skill levels welcome!
