Overwatch Tournaments & Leagues in Texas

Overwatch is one of the most-played team shooters in Texas school and college esports. TEC runs league play and LAN tournaments for it across both tracks, with in-person events that bring teams together face to face.

Compete in Overwatch across Texas

A real season, close to home

Whether your players are new to ranked play or chasing a state championship, there is a place to compete. Overwatch tournaments in Texas have historically been scattered, online-only, or attached to national circuits with little Texas presence. TEC fills that gap with a real season, transparent pricing, and Texas-based events.

Season structure

One Texas calendar, two tracks

Scholastic, Conference

Two seasons that align with the high school academic calendar. Regular-season league play online, with regional and state finals held in person.

Collegiate

Three splits per academic year (fall, winter, spring), with a September pre-season. One membership covers every title and every split.

Match scheduling is Texas-time and built around school commitments. LAN events are held at Texas venues. Online play is guaranteed if a venue is not confirmed.

Who can compete

Built for Texas schools and colleges

Texas high schools join through the Scholastic track at $500 per school, per academic year. Includes one Varsity and one JV team per game.
Texas colleges and universities (2-year and 4-year, varsity or club) join through the Collegiate track at $1,000 per institution, per academic year.

New programs are welcome. You do not need prior esports experience to field a team; many of our member schools started with their first roster within the last year.
