Creating a Community and the Exciting Future for USF Esports w/ Antonio Gonzalez and Andrew Ross
Description
Today we are joined by Antonio Gonzalez and Andrew Ross of the University of South Florida! Antonio is the Assistant Director of Sports Programs and Andrew is the Esports Coordinator. With an estimated 500 million players and fans across the globe, Esports (competitive video gaming) is fast becoming one of the world's most popular forms of recreation. Whether you're new to gaming, a seasoned pro, or just interested in being part of our community, USF has a place for you. Esports is an officially sanctioned program under USF’s Recreation & Wellness department with an organization and management similar to IMs and Sports Clubs. Partnering with student government, USF Esports is identifying current and future students to serve in various leadership roles in the creation of Esports Clubs at USF and in the larger Esports Council. This council will serve as the student voice for esports at USF. The Esports program will have its first physical space open this fall!
