Asheville e-Sports Minecraft Saturday (8-14yrs) @ The Grey Eagle  | Asheville | North Carolina | United States

Wow! Who DOESN’T know a kid who loves Minecraft and a parent worried that he’s missing out on interaction in person with others?

It’s the launch of Asheville e-Sports, brought to you by Tek-Kids. Never heard of e-Sports before? It’s a structured way for young people to use their gaming skills in competition with other people their age. But there’s also plenty of silly, good-natured fun along the way.

We are beginning with a Minecraft event. This event is intended for young people between ages 8 and 14. Children under 8 can participate, but we request that they have an adult on site. We will be playing Minecraft competitively on a closed server (not open to the public). In addition to the competitive games, we will also have some servers dedicated to more relaxed styles of play (creative/survival).

The server will be open the entire time to allow for ad hoc gaming throughout our time there. Periodically we will run more structured competitions. These events will get projected onto the big screen, so even if you’re not playing, you can still get into the action.
PC/Mac or Pocket Edition.
