In the upcoming weeks, we will be introducing some events to help provide the Esports community with more to participate in. Two of the major events will be the DePaul Gaming League and the DePaul Summer Showdown. DGL will consist of more casual gaming sessions with game features such as Among Us and other party style games. While on an Among Us note, our first DGL will occur tomorrow, June 18th at 6 PM CST. With the Summer Showdown, it will be focused around our competitive games and teams. These events will be either tournament-style or show matches for almost all of our competitive series. Our first Summer Showdown series will occur next Thursday, June 24th at 7PM CST. This will be streamed on our Twitch Channel and it will feature Rocket League. As the summer continues these events will rotate every week.

Keep an eye out for the future events, they will be announced between our Discords, Twitter, and Instagram. It will be interesting to see the titles we bring on board in the upcoming weeks.

Personally, I am extremely excited to add these events into the summer. Although I may have a busy summer with my jobs, it is nice to have some competition and casual sessions to experience within a community that I love. Hopefully this is something that we will be able to add into the future and maybe even expand it to become larger than it is at the current moment. I look forward to see who will participate and the memories that will be created by making these events a reality for our community. I hope others see this in the same light and express similar feelings throughout the course of this summer.
