Saints Varsity Esports Secure Sponsorship with HyperX
HyperX has partnered with St. Clair Saints Esports to become the program’s official peripheral partner.
The sponsorship will see HyperX outfitting all 72 stations in the brand new Esports Nexus facility at St. Clair College with mice, headsets, mouse mats and keyboards.
HyperX has also secured naming rights for the stage in the facility which will be called "The HyperX Competition Stage" moving forward.
The HyperX Competition Stage is the focal point of the Nexus facility featuring a 5v5 stage setup and multiple screens for live viewing. It is also the home to St. Clair’s five varsity esports teams where games are played in front of a live audience and broadcasted throughout the facility.
HyperX will also serve as the new title sponsor for the Saints Player of the Month award. This award recognizes each month’s top-performing player from one of the Saint’s varsity esports teams which include Rocket League, Valorant, Overwatch, League of Legends and Call of Duty.
"HyperX is a premier esports peripheral provider and many of our players were already using HyperX gear prior to this partnership so this was basically a no-brainer for us to pursue," said Esports Director Shaun Byrne. "HyperX has been very accommodating and excited about doing activations on campus in our new facilities so we're very excited to explore some unique ideas together"
The Saints Esports Nexus facility includes:
• 72 Gaming PCs
• Dedicated training facilities for varsity teams
• 5v5 HyperX Competition Stage
• Esports Classroom featuring broadcast studio and the latest industry equipment
• 3 dedicated VR spaces connected directly to the broadcast studio
• 5 separate soundproof streaming rooms
