Sometimes, It’s difficult being a college student. It’s even more difficult when you have no one to play video games with. Fortunately, that’s not the case at Fanshawe College thanks to our e-sports team, ‘FUEL’.
Fanshawe’s Ultimate Electronic Sports League or ‘FUEL’, is a video game sports league here at Fanshawe, that consists of different unique members who represent the School in the gaming community throughout many aspects.
The vibrant gaming squad organizes things like leagues competing against other schools, hosting tournaments and even letting students play in their very own gaming room with lots of gaming set-ups to choose from.
FUEL Castor and Commentator Dragan Jakimovski talks about the popular game known as FC 24 and why so many students showed up to the Tournament they had hosted on Monday night.
“There’s a lot of variety for teams you can play single player, multiplayer you can do shared screens, it just brings a lot of good challenges and there’s people that i’ve seen where they’ll say ‘if i win you have to pay for lunch on this day’, it’s just a really nice way for people to get involved, challenge and just meet new people and form bonds.”
Jakimovski went on to discuss how first year students greatly benefit from participating in FUEL events.
“They can be worried that they might not find their place or fit in. FUEL and the FUEL room as well as the events we host gives an opportunity for people to fit in and feel like they belong here if they feel they do or they feel out of place.
we allow people to find their place and meet people on the way that will support them and be with them.”
FUEL makes it their mission to make sure every student here at Fanshawe feels included in every way possible. Whenever a student is having a difficult day from classes,
FUEL takes pride in helping that student find a community that he can rely on for friends or even family.
You can check out their weekly schedule of when there’s open play to the public, and upcoming tournaments on campus outside their gaming arena in J Building, Room J2018.
