COPE is a nonprofit organization founded by a worldwide group of parents of pro esports players and successful content creators who recognized a need to change the perception of gaming in mainstream media and with the majority of parents who have not yet realized the positive aspects of this new sport. Esports athletes and creative influencers have the opportunity to grow personal and business skills to prepare them for successful college and career opportunities. COPE intends to ensure all parents understand the benefits of gaming and how parent involvement and support is the key to success for children everywhere. Esports is not a solo activity in our basement any more. It is a thrilling spectator sport and a great opportunity to cheer your child's success. Esports also teaches physical skill, mental strength, socialization in our networked world and it encourages strong business skills of networking and marketing. Instead of worrying about your child's screentime, engage with them and watch what they are doing. We promise you will be amazed.
