#TechTipTuesday – Esports in MVSD
On Tuesdays, I share a Tech Tip on our social media pages to assist our staff in their use of technology as it relates to their role.
With our Elementary Esports Divisionals just a day away I wanted to maintain this theme and share what esports looks like within the context of MVSD. The following table outlines our “formal” esports presence in the division:
| School | Team Name | League Affiliation | Notes |
| Ecole Macneill | “Ecole Macneill Gamers” Minecraft Student Ambassador | MVSD Elementary | MVSD Elementary Esports Founder 23/24 Minecraft Design Challenge finalists |
| Mackenzie Middle School | MS Magic | MSEA MY | Top 4 23/24 Brawhalla Provincials 2022/23 AAA Rocket League provincial champions Ranked top 5 in Western Canada |
| Ochre River School | ORS StingORS | MSEA MY | |
| Dauphin Regional Secondary School | MSEA SY | ||
| Barker Elementary | Barker Builders | MVSD Elementary | |
| Smith Jackson School | SJ Minecraft Team | MVSD Elementary |
In addition to these teams, we also have multiple schools that have offered esports as an option during choice time, indoor recess, or as part of student-initiated projects.
I am looking forward to continuing to grow this programming option within MVSD and want to, once again, provide a shout-out to MSEA for all of the work they do in this area.
