Building A Better Esports Community
Our aim is to support esports programs and students by focusing on coaches.
We do that via the Coach Rivals Discord server community and The PHNXGaming Foundation. The server is a place where nearly 300 coaches (internationally!) can learn from each other and teach each other through shared experience, collaboration, and by competing in summer seasons. The Foundation is a way to provide micro grants and educational resources to programs.
At the end of the day, we really have one goal: bettering the scholastic esports experience.
The main event of CR is the Summer Season. Nearly 100 coaches are competing in 6-8 weeks of matches in League of Legends and Rocket League ending in a multi-week playoff. Summer ’21 has two LoL leagues (a competitive league for Bronze + and a Learning League for Bronze and below) and one Rocket League round robin tournament.
If you are a current high school or college esports coach who is interested in joining Coach Rivals, contact us today! All skill levels welcome as Coach Rivals is about learning, teaching, and growing as coaches!
The PHNXGaming Foundation
The PHNXGaming Foundation was started by a few CR Coaches to provide micro-grants (under $500) to HS programs.
The majority of proceeds from Twitch subs, Patreon supporters, and merchandise sales is donated directly to The PHNXGaming Foundation.
“Coach Rivals literally changed my life. Not only can I participate in conversations with my players, but I can actually coach them. I’ve made so many connections through CR and love being part of the community. I’ve gained the confidence to play with others outside of academics and have made some awesome friends in the CR server.”
– Allison, Head Coach, High School
