Every once in a while you meet an amazing group of people who check off all the boxes on your homeschool wish list. This year at Game School Con we linked up with Game Crossing, LLC run by Victor Palacios. Game Crossing, LLC is a diverse group of boys who all work together to create gaming tournaments and online entertainment productions. Their creative endeavors not only assist them by creating healthy fun for their communities, many of the boys have expanded into the beginnings of professional careers. This is why we were so excited to meet the Game Crossing, LLC team at Game School Con!
At the homeschool convention, the Game Crossing, LLC team hosted an awesome Super Smash Brothers Tournament for kids ages 8 and up. They had the older and younger groups battling in separate tournaments, but ran them simultaneously. What impressed me most about this set up was how well it was organized and managed by all of the teens in the room. They had everything under control, never lost their tempers and never seemed annoyed by the hundreds of questions constantly coming their way. The entire team was helpful and calm the whole day. Best of all, my son - who is usually shy and easily overwhelmed by a room full of moving and excited people- was totally in his element. The atmosphere set by Game Crossing, LLC was professional, friendly and fun. Every child displayed great sportsmanship during the tournament and even when their time in the tournament ended- many of the kids stuck around to share tips, trade screen names or just cheer on the other players in the tournament that they had just met that weekend!
So I was excited to hear that Game Crossing, LLC was going to host a 12 week Introduction to Youth ESports Course this spring. Even more exciting was that they have linked with Inspire Charter to become a vendor which will allow all of us to use our funds to access this course. We are looking forward to working with the Game Crossing team in the future and are excited to learn about the possibility our son starting a professional career in this field.
