Local context

Why DAIGON for Manchester schools

  • Manchester's independent school sector spans grammar, prep, and international schools โ€” many of which are COBIS or IAPS members with existing DAIGON competition pathways.
  • The North West of England has a rapidly growing esports community, and school-based clubs are a key part of the ecosystem.
  • DAIGON clubs run in any school with internet access โ€” no dedicated PC suite or gaming hardware required.
