Deaf and hard-of-hearing high school students who love competitive gaming have an exciting opportunity this spring with the Tiger Gaming League (TGL). Open to teams from across the country, TGL offers students a chance to compete, collaborate, and showcase their skills in a fast-paced esports environment.
The Spring 2026 season begins on January 21, 2026, and students are encouraged to start preparing now by gathering a team, finding a coach, and registering for the season. The league features a tournament-style format, where every matchup counts and teams battle for a spot among the top competitors.
Throughout the season, teams will compete for a chance to place in the top 10, earning an invitation to the National Competition, which will be held April 30–May 3, 2026, at RIT/National Technical Institute for the Deaf (NTID). This national event brings together the best teams for an exciting culmination of the season.
Registration is open now, but spots are limited. The deadline to apply is January 15, 2026. Students who think they have what it takes are encouraged to sign up and be part of this unique esports experience.
