Level up this summer with UNCG Esports and Gaming Summer Camps!

UNCG is hosting Esports & Gaming Summer Camps for 8-14 year-olds as well as a one week of camp specifically designed for 13-17 year-olds!  This summer, seven one-week camps are being offered on campus in the beautiful UNCG Esports arena, a state-of-the-art 3,300 square feet facility, along with computer lab spaces on campus.  Camps will be divided by age, with an 8-11 year-old group and an 11-14 year-old group.  Eleven-year-olds can choose either group based on comfort level.  And for the week of July 14th, UNCG will be offering the Unreal Engine Gaming Academy for the 13-17 year-old game designers of the future! 

The Esports Arena includes a large number of gaming PCs, consoles, four large video walls, and eight large-screen video panels to facilitate shared experiences with areas for collaboration and academic instruction. 

The summer camp content will include instruction from the nationally renowned gaming education company Black Rocket. Campers will have the opportunity to focus on two major subjects each week – one in the morning and one in the afternoon – and of course have plenty of time allotted for gameplay and friendly competitions.
