eSports Leagues
The CMSA eSports league in particular exists to provide a safe space for LGBTQ+ individuals to participate in online and in-person organized eSport play. We aim to provide a diverse, social community of gamers that encourages camaraderie, sportsmanship, and a lightly competitive atmosphere.
1) League Play -- Weekly league play fully organized by volunteer league managers!
2) Tournament Play -- Paid registration to join tournaments hosted by CMSA in conjunction with external partners for monetary prizes!

All gameplay is hosted out of our Discord!
