The North American Esports League (NAEL) was founded to create an opportunity for Elementary and Middle School aged gamers to play each other in a competitive environment. Just like in traditional sports, the NAEL Teams play in-person at LAN Centers, Clubs, College, Middle and High school arenas and have weekly practices and weekend pro-style tournaments to showcase their talents. Players compete in team esports for 10-week seasons – 8 weeks of matches and 2 weeks of playoffs. We have events throughout the year with our large events being played in-person or virtual with the Summer and Winter World Series.
