About

St. Louis based Mission Control is a platform for recreational league esports, similar to a local adult softball league or college intramurals — but for video games. Mission Control manages the league schedule, validates scores, and determines the champion while also serving as a community forum for league members and friends. Gamers join Mission Control leagues (hosted by local and national organizations) for a casual, social experience doing something they love with their community. Organizations — whether a community center, college rec department, gaming hub, or other group — can use Mission Control to gather a following, host leagues of various game titles, and manage their esports' operations. Mission Control was co-founded by Chief Executive Officer Austin Smith and Chief Operating Officer Byron Abrigg in October 2018.
