Rocket League

Alumni Arena Season 1: Rocket League is an alumni only tournament. Teams need a majority of the players to be have attended the same university. For example, the team that plays each week can have subs and changes throughout the season, but the majority of the players must have been to the same university.

Played in NSE before?
If you already have an NSE account from when you were playing in BUEC, you should have an alumni account. If your NSE account is still using your student email, we recommend you replace it with your personal email.

Not played in an NSE tournament before?
No worries - you can make an account and then fill in the form here with verification to prove your university alumni status. If you’re having trouble, please email alumni@nse.gg. Some examples of what you can use as proof: degree certificate, student card, screenshot of student finance etc.

How sign up players to your team
As we are allowing mixed university teams adding players requires manual admin approval. To add players to team please use this form, and we can add them to your team. During the sign-up period, all requests from this form will be manually updated by NSE staff within 24 hours.
