MiHSEF is a founding member of the Interstate Scholastic Esports Association (ISEA). The ISEA is a nationwide coalition of educator-run scholastic esports organizations serving students and schools in the K-12 space.
Together with partners and publishers that share our values and commitment to protect and elevate scholastic esports, our mission is to empower ALL students to use esports as platform grow socially, emotionally, and academically.
No problem! We work to accommodate all schools in our league, and have no restrictions on participating in multiple leagues!
Student data protection is a priority of ours.
Profit from Student Data has never crossed our minds, and profit from students, schools and coaches will never be a priority.
That is why we do not allow more than the absolute minimum data to be collected from our high school students, and we do not allow middle school students to have accounts.
MiHSEF has been an amazing experience for our school’s players and coaches. There isn’t much more to say, if you are in Michigan high school esports, this is where you want to be.
The league is growing but the board does a such a good job at keeping us all closely knit that it feels like a small, well ran community.
The finals experience was something my students only imagined in their dreams…
Does the Michigan High School Athletics Association (MHSAA) currently run esports?
The MHSAA is not currently involved in esports.
Does the NFHS help govern esports or give approvals for varsity letters?
No. The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) does not offer varsity letters and does not currently govern esports.
Can anyone be a coach?
Yes! Whether your a parent, teacher or community member, working with youth as a coach is a very rewarding experience. We encourage anyone interested to contact their local school and work with them to start a program or assist the current program!
