May 20—SHELTON — City youth athletic teams have long been the envy of surrounding communities — and its esports club can now be counted on that list. The Shelton Esports Club, under the guidance of Shelton Intermediate School automation and robotics teacher Doug Williams, had five of its six teams make the CIAC playoffs this spring, with three earning spots in the state quarterfinals. The Smash Bros. team, Splatoon 3 team, and Madden NFL team all made it to the quarterfinals. The Splatoon 3 team finished fourth place among nearly 200 teams in the region during the regular season.
