BGA students regularly compete in collegiate esports leagues and tournaments, representing NCWU at regional and national levels. The program has earned recognition through strong performances at events such as the Triangle Esports Championship and participation in organizations including the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) and Collegiate Star League (CSL).

Beyond competition, BGA Productions gives students opportunities to explore broadcasting, journalism, graphic design, social media management, podcasting, streaming, and video production. Students produce original content, including the “BGA News” program, gaining real-world experience that prepares them for careers in digital media and communications.

The program’s commitment to experiential learning has led to valuable community partnerships, including collaborations with WHIG-TV that provided students with internship, job-shadowing, and broadcast production opportunities. These experiences allow students to build professional portfolios while connecting classroom learning to career pathways.

Recent investments in NCWU Esports have expanded opportunities for student competitors through scholarships, equipment enhancements, and travel support. These resources help students pursue excellence while developing skills in strategy, problem-solving, collaboration, leadership, and technology.
