Herndon Hs Esports Information 2026–27

 

Do you love gaming and want to compete for Herndon High School?

 

Esports is back at Herndon High School for the 2026–2027 school year! With esports now recognized as an official high school sport by the Virginia High School League, students have the opportunity to represent the Hornets while competing in organized video game competitions.

Whether you are an experienced competitive gamer or simply interested in learning more about esports, we want you to be part of the team! Students can participate competitively or simply get involved and enjoy gaming with other Herndon students.

The team will begin meeting early in the school year to prepare for the upcoming season. Competitive players will be expected to participate regularly in practices and competitions, while students who want to participate more casually are also welcome to join when their schedules allow.

Just like any other Herndon High School athletic team, esports players are expected to maintain appropriate academic performance, attendance, sportsmanship, and behavior throughout the season.

No prior esports experience is required! Whether you are already a competitive gamer, play occasionally with friends, or have never competed before, there is a place for you.

Interested or have questions? Reach out to Coach Headen at jeheaden@fcps.edu for more information and to be added to future esports communications.

 

Come represent Herndon. Compete. Connect. Game on!

 



Varsity Football Games *Weapons Screening 

Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) is taking additional steps this year to help ensure that our athletic events remain safe for students, families, staff, and community members by introducing  security screenings of all spectators at our varsity football games.

We will be using the existing weapons screening systems that our students pass through every morning in our schools. In addition, we will be implementing a standardized bag policy to help support a smooth and efficient entry process. Students, family members, and all spectators are reminded that the following items are prohibited:

  • Backpacks
  • Purse
  • Fanny pack
  • Tote bags
  • Outside food and beverage
  • Sporting equipment (balls, bats, sticks, etc.)
  • Any item prohibited by FCPS policy, or determined by event staff to present safety concerns

Approved bags are limited to:

  • Clear plastic, vinyl, or pvc bags no larger than 12”6”x12”
  • Small clutch bag no larger than 4.5” x 6.5”
  • Medical and diaper bags permitted but subject to inspection

As a reminder, middle-school students and younger, must be accompanied by a responsible adult who remains with the student(s) at the event.
