Tuesday saw the thrilling conclusion of the Digital Schoolhouse Splatoon 3 esports tournament together with Nintendo Switch.


From 59 schools, hundreds of competitors, 9 regionals and two semi finals our final four battled it out at the Lilian Baylis theatre Sadler's Wells in London. 


Teams from Altrincham Grammar School for Boys, Hinchley Wood School,  Dame Allan's School and Southend High School splatted it out across the day with some ink-redible action. 


After a great day's competing Hinchley Wood School came out on top as the winners of the 2025 tournament, with the incredible achievement of not dropping a set throughout the day.


A huge thank you to our partners Nintendo and Scan Computers who helped us put on the event, and if you'd like to be involved in next year's tournament keep your eyes peeled for the expression of interest form which we will be posting soon...


See you in 2026!
