WHERE WE STARTED
EGF was founded in 2015 by Tyler Schrodt while working for Resident Life as a student at RIT when he started running esports tournaments out of his dorm room.
Fast forward five years, EGF is now an established national governing body for organized high school level and collegiate D-I esports leagues. EGF's youth, high school and D-I collegiate leagues are inspired by the best aspects of traditional sports to create opportunities for students and schools to engage and advance.
In addition to the EGFC D-I league and Collegiate Power Series, in 2019, EGF announced the 2020 Walt Disney World EGF High School National Championship as part of a five year collaboration with Walt Disney World.
