Continued Education:<\/strong>\u00a0Many K12 institutions are starting to see the potential of adding Esports to the curriculum as it\u2019s becoming an important aspect of supporting student recruitment into higher education. Currently, there are more than 200 colleges and universities offering nearly $15 million in scholarships to high school students.<\/li><\/ul>In 2018, Ashland University became the first school in the country to offer scholarships for Esports. Many other schools soon after followed suit, creating their own gaming arenas in the process such as Full Sail University\u2019s new eSports arena named \u201cThe Fortress\u201d. The Extreme eCampus News Worldwide Esports Survey found that 21% of schools already have an esports program and that over 70% of K12 schools are now considering introducing competitive gaming to their curriculum in some shape or form. Schools aren\u2019t the only ones seeing the opportunity in Esports. Professional Esport gaming arenas can be found all over the world, including HOK in Kansas City or Fusion Arena in Philadelphia, which will be the first space built specifically for Esports fitted with 3,500 seats. This exponentially growing industry proves that gaming is one of the most lucrative ways for teens to invest in their futures and personal growth.<\/p>
In Esports, a team\u2019s potential success is dependent on their gaming arena. A gaming arena is responsible for turning a sterile space into an immersive experience for everyone to enjoy. A successful gaming arena ensures players have all the tools they need to win and provides onlookers with the opportunity to actively engage. CCS understands the components that make an arena successful and work to create a gaming arena that combines high performance equipment with an adherence to professional gaming standards that will instill confidence at all levels of competition. We take into account your team\u2019s goals and desired gaming experience to design the perfect arena tailored to your team.<\/p>

ESports: On the Rise and Changing Lives By Sam Butler | Less than 20 years ago, the pop culture idea of a gamer was largely accepted to be a somewhat misguided teen who would prefer to hyper fixate on a screen rather than participating in school, a job, or any social interaction.
