The Copa Rica of intercollegiate soccer is held every year in our country and brings together a large number of schools from all corners of the nation. This year, for safety reasons against the COVID pandemic, it was held in Rocket League, one of the ESports or electronic sports modalities, which is already a worldwide trend as will be seen in the next Olympic competition of Tokyo.
More than 20 teams from schools across the country welcomed this event and of course the Ashton School was among the first to accept. Our school was represented by two teams made up of the following students and led by Coach Mr. Pina:
Ashton School 1
Rodrigo Camejo
Daniel Hernandez
Juan Diego Cortina
Daniel Peignand
Ashton School 2
Mila Calventi
Dariel Espinal
Julian Oliver
Mauricio Ramirez
This event was held from May 3 to May 8 online, with the final at the Olympic Center. Our teams had an outstanding participation and reached the eighth finals. It is to be recognized that, despite being their first time, they demonstrated combativeness and team spirit in each meeting and our school wishes to congratulate them and thank them for their passion and dedication. It is noteworthy that this event will continue to be held in this modality and will be part of the already well-known electronic sports games or ESports, where our country is already at a high level with important competitors.
