Esports Environment at BC

Bridgewater College has always emphasized developing and caring for the whole person, and BC’s approach to esports is no different. Esports athletes are required to participate in regular physical activity and study halls. All esports competitors are encouraged to prioritize their physical and mental health while balancing their academic pursuits with esports and other interests. The program prioritizes a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment for engaged students who are passionate about competitive gaming.


Broadcast, Content Creation and More

Outside of competitive players for the varsity roster, Bridgewater esports is also looking for students interested in broadcast, social media, team management, coaching, content creation and journalism. You’ll have opportunities to develop a professional skillset that prepares you for a wide variety of career fields—whether inside gaming and esports or in other related industries.
