Student Esports League (SEL).

The National Professional Cyber Sport League (NPCL), Russia's largest organizer of e-sports competitions, launches a new project in March 2008 – the Student Cyber Sport League (SCL).

SCL was created with the goal of organizing a regular e-sports championship among students, which will allow students to defend the honor of their universities in high-tech intellectual competitions. The League represents an absolutely new level and scale of e-sports events.

On March 3, 2008, the first qualifying games of the Student Cyber Sport League championship will start, and they will be held in Russia's best gaming center (according to the «Good Game Awards») - «4GAME». Following the results of the qualifying round, the players and teams that will participate in the Interuniversity stage will be determined. The best will compete among themselves for the cups and titles of SCL Champions of the current season, as well as valuable prizes from the championship's partners.

The competitions will be held in five disciplines:

Counter-Strike 1.6 (team 5 on 5)
Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne (1 on 1)
Quake 3 Arena (1 on 1)
Need for Speed ProStreet (1 on 1)
FIFA 08 (1 on 1)

At the beginning of next week, the official SCL website will open - www.sсleague.ru, where you can familiarize yourself with the freshest and most interesting materials from the life of the Student Cyber Sport League.

The SCL championship of the 2008/09 season will become an unprecedented event not only within the framework of traditional sports and e-sports, but also on the scale of student life as a whole.
