Hawk Fans,
The Canistota Esports program has increased in size from 8 students in the 2024-2025 season to 22 students for the 2025-2026 season. A significant number of students are interested in the Nintendo Switch titles, but we currently have only 2 devices.
Some community members have said they have a Nintendo Switch sitting around their home not being used. If you would like to donate your device to the Canistota Esports program, please reach out to Brandon Blide at brandon.blide@k12.sd.us.
Thank you for your support of the Canistota Esports program.
