Shahzaib Khan Yusufzai from the United States...... assisted by all the Students of America and the students of the world.

Let's now take a look, at this nascent model just so emerging on the world scene ...........

E-SPORTS, -A BROAD TERM encompassing several forms of competitive video game playing, is a very big business and growing very rapidly.

The owner of the New England Patriots, Robert K. Kraft, and a New York Mets executive, Jeff Wilpon recently bought teams that will compete in a league for the game Overwatch, reportedly for  $20 million or more,-

And competitions at arenas like Madison Square Garden and the Staples Center in Los Angeles have sold out.

But there are dozens of smaller tournaments and leagues that need a place to be staged, which is where the E-Sports Arena comes in. Several other venues are in the works.

The three-story, 95 year old historic brick building in this city's downtown certainly does not look like the future of sports.

The windows are covered with paper on the inside to block light, and it is across the street from the  Orange County Church of Scientology, near a parking garage and a parking lot.

But the huge NBC Sports production truck parked outside pointed to something important happening.

Inside the building, known as Esports Arena, 16  two-person teams competed at Rocket League, a video game in which players control rocket-powered cars playing a version of soccer.

The winners of the contests, the Universal Open Rocket League Grand Finals, will take home the largest share of a $100,000 prize pool.

The players, who sit in front of monitors with controllers in hand, wearing headsets to communicate with their teammates, are surrounded on three sides bleachers filled with a couple of hundred fans.

Behind them is a stage with three analysts, the e-sports equivalent of studio broadcasters. Above them on the mezannine level, are play-by-play commentators and more players taking part in lower bracket matches.

The Esports Arena, the country's first venue opened specifically for e-sports competitions opened in 2015.

The tournament last weekend was the first foray into e-sports by NBC, the American Television Network. Two hours from the tournament on Saturday and Sunday nights were broadcast on its NBCSN cable sports channel, and hours more were streamed online.

The network constructed a set with a dark, futuristic aesthetic : spotlights, smoke machines and a lot of neon orange and blue, Rocket League's colors.

The developer of the arena, Paul Ward and Tyler Enders, both 29, met in middle school playing basketball and attended nearby Azusa Pacific University together, but are gamers at heart.

''Our kitchen in college was TVs and Xboxes.'' said Endres, adding that they ran impromptu tournaments whenever possible.  

E-sports, a broad term encompassing several forms of competitive video game playing, has a huge business potential and is growing rapidly.

The owner of the New England Patriots, Robert  K. Kraft, and a New York Mets executive, Jeff Wilpon recently bought teams that will compete in a league for the game Overwatch-

Reportedly for $20 million or more, and competitions at arenas like Madison Square Garden and the  Staples Center in Los Angeles have sold out.

But there dozens of  smaller tournaments and leagues that need a place to be staged, which is where the E-sports Arena comes in Several other venues are in the works.

Ward and Endres began raising money in 2012  but struggled to persuade possible landlords that they could generate enough revenue to pay the rent from something called  E-Sports.

But after looking at potential sites across Southern California, the ownership of 95-year-old building that became the  Esports Arena saw their proposal and agreed to rent to them.

The space they created  - much of it by hand, laying carpet and running *heavy-duty internet infrastructure* - is relatively spartan, with concrete floors and few fixed objects.

''It needs to be modular,'' Ward said, because the arena is constantly hosting events of different sizes with different needs.

For big events, the 15,000 square feet can seat 900 fans, but capacity was reduced to 500 for the  Universal Open because of the elaborate set.

Soon, Ward and Endres will be running three e-sports arenas.

A 16,000 square-foot arena is scheduled to open in Oakland, Calif, this year, and a 30,000 square-foot arena is expected to open in the Luxor Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas early next year.

This expansion is fueled by a multi-million dollar investment in Esports Arena by Allied Esports, a consortium of Chinese sports and entertainment companies that owns an e-sport s arena in Beijing, among other properties.

The plan is to expand far beyond Oakland and Las Vegas in the next several years.

The Honor and Serving of the latest Operational Research continues. With much appreciation and many thanks to the author, and researcher Kevin Draper.

With Sad and Respectful dedication to the memory of all those American citizens, mowed down last Sunday, and then the Students, Professors and Teachers of the world.

See Ya all on !WOW!  -the World Students Society and Twitter-!E-WOW! -the Ecosystem 2011:
