High schoolers won’t have to exercise to get a varsity letter, now that Virginia is adding electronic sports, better known as esports, as a school competition.
The Virginia High School League (VHSL) has approved a one-year pilot program for esports as a competitive activity.
For the first year, Virginia will have competitions in League of Legends, Rocket League and SMITE, and schools will be allowed to enter multiple teams of different students for each game title.
In League of Legends and SMITE, teams consist of five members. In Rocket League, teams include only three members.
