Esports Playdate 2026
Level up your district's approach to eSports! Join LHRIC Instructional Technology and selected vendor partners for an immersive Esports event designed specifically for K-12 educators and administrators. Our playdate will feature an opening keynote, followed by expert-led breakout sessions covering essential topics like coaching, hardware versatility, and the Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) impact of gaming. Explore our dedicated demo arena to see professional-grade setups in action, enjoy power-up snacks, and participate in a live Q&A panel to get your program-specific questions answered. Whether you are building a program from scratch or refining an existing team, discover how a properly built Esports initiative can bridge subjects and engage every student.
Note: this event is open to participating LHRIC Model Schools at no charge, but we can accommodate outside registrants for a fee of $250 per participant. Please contact Leslie Accardo (laccardo@lhric.org) with any questions.
