Course structure

Setup and group discussion outlining the activities and objectives of today's class

Warm up. Kick things off with a physical warm up to loosen up and focus. Physical well-being is as important for your in-game performance as your mental state.

Split into groups and jump into practice drills. For example these can vary from in-game practice scenarios or exercises in the real world where players practice describing their location on the map in the most efficient way

Strategy discussion. As we head into the next phase of the class where teams will jump into the battle royal mode, the coach will discuss with the teams their strategy and what each player should be focusing on improving

Competition time! Players enter the battle royal game mode and compete in teams for the coveted first place

Post game analysis. The players gather round to analyse their gameplay, discuss what went right and wrong and how to improve. Typically at this point the coach will assign players with various tasks to take home and complete in time for the next class
