FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What games rotate each month?
2 games rotate each month in and out of the Qualifier Series. Upcoming games are listed above. Each game featured in ESC Nationals will have 2 qualifier events throughout the qualification period.
Do Qualifier points carry to the next season?
Yes. Points earned in Qualifier Series events are cumulative across Fall, Winter, and Spring. Every official match or tournament contributes toward your team’s total Power Ranking for the year.
Who can enter Qualifiers?
Any scholastic or youth-based organization can enter. Teams must have an adult coach or supervisor, and all players must be currently enrolled in K–12. You don’t have to be part of the regular VHEL season to participate.
Is there a fee or invite system?
Qualifiers are open-entry — no invitation required. Events are free to join for eligible scholastic or youth-based teams that meet regular VHEL requirements: youth based organization, coached by an adult, and have an in-person environment (even if they don’t play in-person).
What is the Fortnite Points System for National qualification?
Fortnite qualification spots are awarded based on the details on the How Teams Qualify page.
