I will represent Monsignor Farrell High School in Staten Island, NY as I am the best SC2 player in the entire school.

99% sure of that.

edit: there's definitely going to be some random person who comes in this thread and is like "omg i play sc2 and go to farrell and i can kick this guy's ass >:D"

if that's the case my bnet name is Crono.582 and we can throw down on any map.

I am the only one from my school so this is just me pitching an idea but since there is only a few people per school could we just organize teams much like a draft. That way we would all be around the same age group and be able to schedual better times together to play. Kinda like a mini clan. I would like to meet some of the other players out there also

i don't think it would be a good idea for a high schooler to create a club about video games
#1 most school clubs need a teacher to sponsor the club
#2 not good for your social popularity if you care about it

I'd say you don't necessarily need to trust someone in order to express interest for a league that isn't asking for anything other than an expression of interest. OP is taking the initiative and setting up a friendly high school league, not asking for your money or firstborn children

As for the CSL, I wasn't aware of actually taking a hand in organizing this league, but we've talked to the OP about some of our pitfalls and experiences. Either way, sounds like a cool league and hope it does well!

Hi there, I am pleased to notify all of you that Aragon and Carlmont high schools in Bay Area, CA have already started a joint SC2 American high school league. Carlmont's first club meeting was held today and ours will be held tomorrow. Luckily, many students are interested in the game/have purchased it and our membership is expected to grow. We are looking into having our first school vs. school tournament this semester. The school council has already approved these clubs and we have the full support of our advisers.

As for "social status" problems, we have a mix of "popular" and "geeky" students interested in SC2. The local high school community has recognized that gaming is an integral part of the modern youth's lives and ostracizing anyone for gaming is actually looked down on in our school. Our school environment is very gamer friendly, with a variety of other game related clubs already in existence.

We look forward to possibly merging with your CSL sponsored league, however far it has progressed. We are also looking into recruiting additional schools within The Bay.

Btw, I did a quick search for "high school starcraft league" and I ended up at TL. I made my account today so I could post to you guys about this awesome news.

Man that would be so awesome. SC2 club, we could put it in our college application. I hear that Berkeley has a SC course. Maybe they'll be interested in enrolling us.

If only this happened last year. College can be so soul-crushing sometimes.

Not really, although I would've really liked to participate in this.
