There can be a very low barrier to entry, and still time to sign up, find a few students who can compete in the titles, and show up on game day. This is also where most of the college recruitment comes from.

IHSEA link
https://www.ihsea.org/
Matches all year long, has very dedicated and helpful staff, low cost ($200 for the whole year), has a very active discord, online games during the week, and in-person tournaments every few months. Highly recommended for any Illinois club wanting to take this even a little bit seriously. Finals are usually double elimination, which is exciting.

PlayVS link

I didn't mention this tournament organizer, but they are the easy button for matches. It usually has a high cost (Over $1k per year) but next semester is free. Schools are competing from multiple states here, which is fun, and the skill ceiling is very high.

Presentation made by Cory Ulrich, Mathue Wurtz, and myself if anyone wants to get into the nitty-gritty of setting up eSports from an IT perspective:
