VIDEO GAME CLUB

From Mario Kart To Making Friends

HSE’s variety of clubs allows for Royals of all interests to participate and feel at home within the school environment. The Video Game Club meets every Friday after school. Unlike its competitive counterpart, the HSE Esports team, the Video Game Club is purely for enjoyment and socialization.

“It’s people getting together, playing a game they mutually enjoy just for the sake of enjoyment,” club founder Keaton Squires said.

Super Smash Brothers, Mario Strikers and various Nintendo games are regular favorites, but students are welcome to bring in new games to share. This club provides a safe community for gamers to create the bonds vital to an enjoyable high school experience.

“I would say I never really created the club,” Squires said. “It was more like the kids needed it and it needed to happen.” Story and photo by Maya Patel.
