At Wits, the E-Sport Club provides students with a structured environment to train, compete, and socialise around gaming. The club caters to a variety of popular game titles across genres — including real-time strategy, first-person shooters, sports simulations and multiplayer online battle arenas — depending on member interest and competitive opportunities. Membership is open to students regardless of skill level, from complete beginners curious about gaming culture to experienced competitive players seeking to represent Wits in local and national tournaments.
