This camp is specially crafted for young gaming enthusiasts who want to take their gaming skills to the next level while making lasting connections with fellow gamers. Campers are coached in a well-rounded, collegiate eSports gaming experience, offering both skill development and personal growth opportunities. Coaching, provided by the Missouri S&T eSports team, is designed to boost students' self-confidence, leadership abilities, and problem-solving skills, both in gaming and in life.

Esports often require teamwork, and this camp can help high schoolers develop strong communication and collaboration skills.
