Not sure if this would be the right area but anyways

I've been hoping to start an Australian High schools starcraft 2 league and I wondering if there was anyone here who's schools would be interested in participating? Last year I started thinking about it and I reached out to a few schools, however this was during the holidays so people couldn't get into contact with others to pull a team together. By the time that school started again and I contacted some of the people most couldn't get enough players or didn't have the time.

So I want to see if there's any interest here, if you are in high school and have a group of friends or know people in your school who play starcraft 2 then you could put together a team and play in the friendly tournament. Initially I only thought about schools in Victoria but if there was enough interests from other states then maybe it could include all schools in Australia.

Anyways this was just seeing if there was enough interest because currently I only have two schools down for the tournament

Are you the guy from the Monash CGBC group doing a high school league? Because I saw a guy there advertising it but I think he was from ProxiTeam

There was a big thread discussing this some time ago. I'd suggest finding it ("SC2 in schools" was possibly the name). Lots of people posted (with some divided opinion) but I'm sure you'd find some people who were interested previously to contact.

[xGKingdelete]

this would be awesome, i think some of my friends might be interested (although they're all ).

But what happens if we get a team of vs ?

let's do this

[KAshadowz]

yeah I posted on the cgbc page
the other thread discussed about sc2 within schools, part of the co-curricula system
of course this is an tournament where people can just represent their schools, whether officially or unofficially. So I don't want to mix up the two threads

The point of my message was that you could potentially find people worth contacting. Not that you should mix things up (????)

[KAshadowz]

if there's alot of teams then we could seperate them by leagues but I'm not sure how many there will be, and it is just a friendly tournament

[asdfSchnitzel]

It would probably be better as a 1v1 league, as it will be easier to fill up places then ^^ (I would compete at its current state but don't have any friends who play sc =.=)

[ToRDarKnoob]

ill try to get a team up for BHS btw can we get some ex-students?

(a state league would be cool)

[ToRDeathsFang]

I'm the only guy in my school from what i know who plays Starcraft and my classmates bag me for it because they're gay CoD nerds

While I agree it would be easier to fill up with a 1v1 league it certainly would be as fun. I was just talking to some ex-students from my school who set up a breakdancing competition about 5-6 years ago. What started with only 2-3 schools is now an annual event hosted by my school which has participants from 10+ schools and pulls in a massive crowd. I want to start something similar for starcraft 2, and while they are probably different things, after you get things off the ground, anything could happen to it.

While I think it would make it easier to get a team with ex-students, I don't want to have like ex-students from years back because that would detract it from the main goal of being a league for high school students probably undecided on this now, but maybe having ex-students from the previous year, but not any further back than that.

I know how that is, happens at so many schools lol. If we have enough people then we could probably make a team of mercs, sort of like clanless. I'm thinking that if we could get maybe 2-3 more schools signed up here, and a team of mercs then we would have a pretty nice tournament to start off with. I can definitely imagine being able to put together enough people for 1 merc team, 2 schools already confirmed and a potential one from this page so if just a few more people see this then it could work pretty well.

[KAshadowz]

so yeah...lol onto the topic of highschools

[ToRRedemption]

Yeah, im in same school(Balwyn High School) as darknoob we have about 4 people that play. Out best player has left, he was a high gm on SEA and high masters in NA

well I was talking to a few other schools before and we thought that probably the best format would be four bo3 1v1's and a bo3 2v2. We can play all the 1v1's at once to save time and play the 2v2 at the end, you can reuse players in the 2v2. It's not that hard to get working, as long as we have a means a communication we can run weekly games on like friday night.

[KAshadowz]

[FLuX]

You should include New Zealand schools as well.. Just saying

[KAshadowz]

hahas if you can get a team up, sure join in

[IcedTea]

Hmm. This could work.
I hope you get a good amount of players. xD

[Wolf_Dragunov]

ok than i shall organise a Brisbane team i dont exactly think the players at my school will surfice. but i personaly think that this SEASC2HSL (South East Asia Starcraft2 High School League) should be a battle of the states but from what ive seen there are alot of Vic and NSW teams so yeah i see where this could go wrong anyway i shall organise a team and get back to you.

p.s i have been trying to get a similar thing going with halo combat evolved and starcraft 1 at my school start a school Competition as cocky as this sounds i dont think i should have played if i went ahead with the idea i was better than most and im horrible at both those games

[asdfSchnitzel]

If you want i will participate in this venture, as i'm from a school about a 1/2 hr from the city where noone plays sc >.>

[TABottles]

if my old highschool wasn't filled with 100% bogans they might participate

[x5_Potter]

I think me and a couple of my friends play SC2 and we're all silver or bronze. Dunno if anyone else at the school does though haha. Also we're in SA.

[FLuX]

Currently in the process of getting our team up and running; we have 4 members currently, from Dunedin, New Zealand. We're down and totally keen to play in this.

[KAshadowz]

hahas I think the battle of the states would be fun but we don't have enough numbers from all the states yet. But having a Australian and New Zealand high school league does come close to that, after the first season there's alot of potential to do other things too.

I've sent out a round of messages to people who are interested, if you missed one or want one post in this thread and I'll send you the details
