League of Legends at UCLA

We are a club centered around the community united by the game League of Legends. We aim to foster friendship between the members of our club and to compete against ourselves and other similar organizations in order to achieve our highest potential. We encourage good sportsmanship, integrity, and teamwork. The humble beginnings of UCLA's League of Legends Club stemmed from a small Facebook group community that came together to talk about things related to League of Legends and Riot. Word of the community quickly spread until an official UCLA club was created for the UCLA League of Legends community, officially called League of Legends at UCLA, in November 2012. Boasting a combined on-campus and online presence of 1400+ members strong, the UCLA League of Legends community is ever growing and taking strides to raise the League of Legends presence through esports representation. Through weekly meetings, quarterly tournaments, and social gatherings, the UCLA League of Legends Club aims to create lasting friendships among their members and, through playing League of Legends, to instill in members the importance of team dynamics: cooperation, good communication, and sportsmanship. Though the UCLA League of Legends Club has gone through heavy changes since their beginnings as a Facebook interest group, their purpose has never strayed: to create an inclusive, safe environment where students that play League of Legends can come together to discuss, learn, and play the game, whilst always furthering the potential of e-sports as a whole.
