response to the growing popularity of “Esports”—or competitive video gaming—the

The athletes, while not competing in traditional athletic endeavors, were
nonetheless recruited and will participate in online gaming competitions in
five popular games: League of Legends, Fortnight, Apex of Leagues, Overwatch and
Rocket League.
