Valorant Charity Tournament Set to Take Place Saturday-Sunday, April 15-16
The National Esports Collegiate Conference (NECC) has partnered with Collegiate Valorant Hub to announce the Cherry Cup event. This two-day charity Valorant Tournament is for marginalized gender players. The tournament will be raising money for the Trevor Project, a crisis service for LGBTQ+ youth.

The tournament will take place on the weekend of April 15-16 in the intermission between the NECC regular seasons and the playoffs, and is intended for teams of marginalized gender players all from the same university.
The Cherry Cup was an idea from the NECC's recently-formed Community Engagement Committee and speaks to the committee's mission of diversity, equity, and inclusion for all players.
