Why Get Involved?
Esports isn’t just about gaming — it’s about developing critical skills in communication, collaboration, strategic thinking, and resilience. Through participation, students build school pride, meet like-minded peers from across the country, and learn how to thrive in competitive environments with good sportsmanship.
Plus, being part of the AEL ensures your school is participating in a nationally recognised competition, fully supported with a focus on cybersafety, structure, and student wellbeing.
By entering, your school will also receive media assets to showcase your students’ involvement and achievements — helping foster school spirit and celebrating your school’s commitment to innovation and extracurricular engagement.
Safe and Structured Play Environment
We take student safety seriously.
All communications are managed through verified Discord servers (for esports titles) or Microsoft Teams (for Minecraft CTF), ensuring a secure and monitored environment. Only verified students and educators can access our communication channels, and we’ve implemented advanced moderation and automation tools to maintain a positive experience for all.
We look forward to seeing your school compete and shine!
