My
son
participated
in
the
Fortnite
league
over
the
summer.
He
loved
it!
Game
days
and
practice
days
were
his
favorite
thing
to
do
all
week!
As
parents,
my
wife
and
I
were
admittedly
a
little
skeptical
of
the
concept
of
eSports
at
first.
We
hadn't
previously
heard
of
the
concept
and
we
weren't
sure
how
we
felt
about
our
son
playing
more
video
games.
I
have
to
admit
though,
we
were
both
shocked
at
how
many
positive
impressions
we
walked
away
with
after
we
gave
it
a
chance.
Some
of
our
favorite
surprises
were:
-
Team
work,
communication,
and
practice
were
essential
to
competing
with
other
teams.
-
The
games
put
a
big
emphasis
on
planning,
strategic
thinking,
and
problem
solving.
-
The
participants
build
real
friendships
with
other
kids
that
extend
beyond
the
facility
where
they
play.
-
The
coach
was
very
skilled
at
connecting
with
the
kids
on
their
level.
He
was
super
patient.
He
kept
it
fun
for
the
kids,
while
still
providing
structure
and
guidance.
-
On
several
occasions
we
overheard
the
owner
talking
with
the
kids
about
the
importance
of
taking
a
break
from
video
games
and
playing
outside.
The
healthy
emphasis
on
balance
was
music
to
our
ears.
-
The
owner,
coach,
and
staff
all
made
sure
that
the
language
and
conversations
in
the
facility
stayed
appropriate
and
kid
friendly.
-
The
location
was
fantastic.
Parking
was
never
an
issue.
There
are
tons
of
great
places
to
eat
within
walking
distance.
There
was
even
an
outdoor
playground
and
park
area
for
our
youngest
to
play
while
her
brother
was
practicing/competing.
In
summary
-
We
liked
it
a
lot.
We'll
be
back.
It's
worth
giving
a
shot.
