Why We Built This Program

Back in 2022, Hazem Abdelwahab was coaching players individually and kept hearing the same frustrations. People wanted to improve but didn't know where to start. The information online was scattered and contradictory.

So we started small. Just eight students in our first group, meeting twice a week in a cramped office above a café in Zagazig. We focused on fundamentals—decision-making under pressure, reading opponents, building effective practice routines. Nothing fancy. The results surprised us. Not because everyone became professional players (they didn't), but because they developed a structured approach to improvement that worked across different games and skill levels. That autumn group kept meeting informally even after the program ended. Three of them now help us refine the curriculum. Our next cohort starts September 2025, and we're limiting it to thirty participants because we've learned that personal attention matters more than scale.

How Sessions Actually Work

Tuesday and Thursday evenings, 7 PM Egypt time. We start with gameplay review—students submit replays, we break down decisions together. Then skill-specific drills. The last hour is open practice with instructor observation.

What You'll Actually Do

Months 1-3 cover fundamentals: mechanics training, game sense development, communication basics. Months 4-6 focus on specialization—you pick a role or playstyle to develop. Final months are team-based projects where you apply everything.

From People Who Went Through It

We asked past participants what they'd tell someone considering the program. These are their actual responses, not cherry-picked success stories.

Tarek Elshenawy

2024 Winter Cohort

I came in thinking I'd learn secret strategies. Instead, I learned how to actually practice effectively. Sounds boring but it's the part that stuck with me. I'm still using the review methods they taught us.

Nadia Farouk

2023 Autumn Cohort

The guest speaker sessions were honestly the highlight for me. Hearing a tournament organizer explain how events actually work behind the scenes changed how I thought about the whole industry. Made it feel more real and less like a fantasy.

2024 Spring Cohort

Be prepared for actual work. This isn't watch-some-videos-and-you're-done. The feedback sessions can be tough—they'll point out mistakes you didn't know you were making. But that's kind of the point, right?

Omar Rashid

2023 Summer Cohort

I appreciated that they didn't promise us careers or sponsorships. They were upfront—this teaches you skills, what you do with them is on you. I ended up coaching a local youth team. Not what I expected, but I'm enjoying it.
