We accidentally left off that Apex is currently planned for the 2026 Spring season as a State title, however we are cautious as to the ‘major update’ announced. A major switch in game mode and/or a loss of custom lobby ability would have us re-evaluating for the season.

- Marvel Rivals (state)
- Street Fighter 6 (casual)
- Splatoon 3 (casual)
- Mario Kart 8 (state)

🎮 Support Esports in Idaho Schools - and get the best tax benefits!

✅ To maximize your savings and support local teams, please donate directly to your public school or school district.

➡️ Be sure to write "Esports" in the memo or donation note to help direct funds to your esports program.

💸 Why donate directly? Because Idaho offers a 50% tax credit for donations to schools (up to $1,000 for married couples), plus the new federal tax deduction lets you deduct up to $1,000 (single) or $2,000 (married filing jointly) - even if you don’t itemize!

🌟 Want to support esports across the state? You can donate through Idaho Esports Association https://givebutter.com/x2gm3d. We use donations to fund programs statewide, but note this does not qualify for Idaho’s education tax credit - only the federal deduction.

📚 Learn more about Idaho’s donation tax benefits:

⚠️ Please consult your tax professional to understand how these benefits apply to your personal situation.

Thank you for supporting esports students and teams across Idaho! 🎮❤️
