WMU Esports teams operate at the varsity and club level. They compete competitively with other universities' club or varsity teams in the region. The club teams are student-run and financially self-sufficient. Each team is a registered student organization and require tryouts for participation.
The WMU Esports program currently participates in four games at the varsity level in the National Esports Collegiate Conference (NECC).

Varsity team expectations
Varsity players are expected to practice each week with their team at the Esports Arena. In-season matches typically occur once per week, but there is occasionally a double-header or double-match week, depending on the schedule. Other opportunities may be offered to varsity teams for competing in additional leagues.
What are the benefits of the varsity team?
- Official WMU Esports jersey
