Community and competition for Spartan gamers.
Esports at York College of Pennsylvania offer a unique on-campus community, focused on competitiveness, student growth, and education. YCP's collegiate esports program was founded in 2020, and includes both Esports Club and a competitive branch. Students who participate in the competitive branch compete in NACE, NECC, and AVGL.
The program is supported by a full-time director, a part-time coach, and the College's Library and Technology Services (LTS) team. Students also have access to top-of-the-line facilities and gaming equipment, including high-end PCs and monitors, professional-level broadcasting and streaming tools, a watch party area, and much more.
More than gaming.
The York College Esports Program strives to support students competitively, academically, and professionally throughout their college experience.
