University of Jamestown’s Esports team joins Extra Life

We are so happy to welcome the University of Jamestown’s Esports team to Extra Life!

 Esports is a form of competition using video games and the University of Jamestown started a team just last year.  They are a member of the National Association of Collegiate eSports (NAC).   Not only do they love gaming but they are so excited to game for a cause. 

Following a tour of Sanford Children’s hospital, Head Coach Josh Knutson said, “It’s one thing to raise money for a good cause, but to actually see where the money would be going is such a great motivator to go out and hit our goal. Extra Life North Dakota has done some amazing things in the past, and we are here at UJ Esports are so excited and honored to become a part of that great legacy. We can’t wait to help the healing process along through something that is near and dear to our team, and to most kids – playing games.” 

UJ Esports will do 24-hour live stream charity fundraiser on October 26-27.
