Are video games the next big college sport?
New kinds of competitors are joining student athletes at colleges and universities around the
country. But not everyone agrees that these video game players are taking part in a sport. Sports are
an established part of college life and a source of income for some schools. The football stadium at
the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, for example, holds over 107,000 people. It is one of the
largest sports stadiums in the world!
Like most traditional college sports, video game competitions involve two or more teams of students
officially representing their schools. Team members wear clothing with their names and school
colors. They even have coaches giving them advice on how best to win.
However, there is no running or jumping or hitting other players. In fact, these new events are
different from any traditional athletic activity. They are called esports, and they take place not in
the real world, but in computers or other video game systems.
Professional video game competitions have been popular around the world for years. Teams and
individuals compete for prize money and awards in strategic military combat games like Starcraft
and one-on-one fighting games like Street Fighter. Fonte: adaptado de < https://app.engoo.com/daily-news/article/are-video-games-the-next-big-collegesport/xAFD2HW1EeePT98egCHuDw
