In all likelihood eSports would never really be considered being included in NCAA rules, since, even though it is very much a legitimate competition for students, it is hard to consider it athletic. As such, I would envision an entirely separate governing body eventually existing, making it much easier to get backing from schools.
Also, I know that I asked this earlier in the thread, but it looks like it must have been missed, (or I missed the response, :X) but, will there be a rule preventing double race teams in the 2v2?
In all likelihood e-sports could be considered a club sport or something similar. Though club sports usually don't have live streams, thousands of dollars of prizes, and star-treatment haha.
There is a rule in place preventing 2v2 teams with double races. Sorry.

oh damn this is really awesome, if colleges actually started supporting teams in e-sports...... OMG 8) that would be reallllllllly good for esports :D Colleges in America, for the most part, can't support E-sports as legitimate sports because they violate NCAA Violations. Student athletes cannot be paid / compensated / win prizes etc. and all Starcraft and other E-sports tournaments violate these rules. We have a club poker team at our school which gets funding to travel, etc., no reason esports can't be a club sport either. Also, double racing is not allowed for 2v2.
Well yes, it could be considered a club sport. Mostly I was just saying that there is no reason that the NCAA would ever be involved. (Thank god, lol.)
Its good to know double racing isn't allowed, thanks.

Can I ask what car rental services other teams are using? We're running into a lot of extra charges because our driver is only 20.

Hi there,
I am part of the UIUC CSL team and we recently submitted an application to attend the event. Is it already too late or can we still attend? We would really like to go and we've been coordinating cars and everything. I really don't want to disappoint my team, who are all really excited about attending.
Thank you!

Sent them an email about new apps, but I'm not sure, since the app link is gone from the site.

Yes, we did. The only possibility of getting accepted as of now is if a team decides to drop; however, I am not sure how likely that is since all that are coming have already booked a room at the hotel or live close enough to not need a room. Sorry. We will post any updates if they come up regarding teams.
