Affinity Esports!
Have your child join us for a Summer of fun with Affinity Esports! Our camps cover engaging activities that drive socialization, skill development, and passion. Our days are balanced between the camp's theme, education around healthy gaming habits, and regular screen breaks. While away from their screen, your child can be found taking walks, doing quick exercise drills, pausing for regular hydration, eating lunch outside, completing team building activities, or playing tabletop games. During the week, your kids will spend roughly half of their time away from the screen, being socially engaged, and fusing their passion for the digital world into peer-to-peer interactions, critical skill development, and new perspectives. Our camps are made possible and enhanced through the support of industry experts, experienced coaches and instructors and well-rounded camp counselors.
Week 2, Camp 1 - Rocket League Camp
Have your child join us for Rocket League Camp, where they will have the opportunity to learn about how this game fits into the booming esports industry, while focusing on a skill of the day (such as character, teamwork, communication, problem solving, or leadership) and how to apply that skill within the game itself and also in life. We will take all skill levels, from beginner to advanced, and work with each individual and the collective to improve their mechanics, game sense, and overall performance. They will be placed within a team where they will learn to grow, strategize, and function cohesively in a competitive environment, learning both from their wins and losses. Rocket League is a 3v3 fantastical sport-based game, developed by Psyonix (it’s soccer with cars). It features a competitive game mode based on teamwork and outmaneuvering opponents. Players work with their team to advance the ball down the field, and score goals in their opponents’ net.
