Cobb also hopes to see esports more integrated
into school curriculums, making it a part of the
school day for students.
" I think we're going to see esports have involvement
throughout daily coursework, " Cobb said. " As a
school district, you could see it pop up more in the
curriculum, making it more sustainable for schools.
People outside of esports clubs will start to hear
about it and it will add even more credibility. "

school districts to provide opportunities, support
their needs, and keep them engaged.

with their school and community is really important
and PlayVS can provide that, " Cobb said.
