'''Solar Esports''' ('''SLE''') is primarily a North American esports organization that was founded by Riley Wallace (also known as {{Sm|Instinct}}) and Jaylen Rios (also known as {{Sm|Squaffles}}) on June 19th, 2022.  The organization is currently sponsoring ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' players, but has previously sponsored ''Apex Legends'', ''Dragon Ball FighterZ'', ''Guilty Gear Strive'', ''Pokémon Unite'', and ''Valorant'' players. They also manage the {{Trn|The Dojo}} weekly series, originally being known in the Smash scene for hosting WiFi brackets such as {{Trn|Galaxy Gladiators}}, {{Trn|The Galaxy's Finest}}, and hosting two Solar Circuits that acted as invitationals. Solar Esports first entered the Smash scene on June 19th, 2022, acting as an online North American crew within the [[Smash Crew Server]], later also becoming a crew inside the [[Global Smash League]]. This shifted as Solar Esports looked to further their presence in the offline Smash scene starting on October 30th, 2022 when the organization started sponsoring players and financially supported them to attend local tournaments. As a result, the organization stopped being a crew within the Smash Crew Server and Global Smash League to focus on its goals of supporting offline players.

Most players on Solar Esports's roster are not signed. However, on June 5th, 2023, {{Sm|Mr. Ping}} became Solar Esports's first signed player.<ref>https://twitter.com/SolarEsportsSLE/status/1666027148816130055</ref> {{Sm|Apple Reviewer}} was signed soon after on June 7th, 2023 to become Solar Esports's second signed player.<ref>https://twitter.com/SolarEsportsSLE/status/1666838408080105480</ref>
