What started out with just a few schools has now exploded in just two years to 130 districts and 2600 participants. ESports Ohio has taken video games out of the basement and put them into the hands of teens at school. What they're doing is more than just playing a game. Now, it's giving more chances for kids to succeed, helping them learn critical life skills and possibly taking these teenagers to places they never thought they'd go. If you'd like to learn more about ESports or how to get your district involved, reach out to ESports Ohio founder Nick Rider.
