Trinidad and Tobago secured 2nd place in the Senior Division of the international NASEF Farmcraft 2025 Global Competition, marking the country’s highest finish in the event. The competition was hosted by the Network of Academic and Scholastic Esports Federations and used the Minecraft Education platform to integrate agriculture, science and technology.
Representing Trinidad and Tobago were two Queen’s Royal College students, Saleem Devenish, 14, and Shiloh Atwell, 13. The pair competed against more than 25,000 students from 73 countries. The result was announced on December 10.
Preparation for the competition began in April, when the students entered the Pre-Farmcraft Challenge. They were required to design a sustainable farm and forestry system based on environments found in Trinidad and Tobago. Their preparation included online collaboration through WhatsApp, research on the agricultural theme “Land Demand”, and testing layouts within Minecraft Education.
