TL;DR - I have no one to play with, closet scene is an hour away, can't do it at school or home, and a local microplay hosted a smash 4 tourney once should i make a deal with them?

Recently I've been getting into competitive and I've been having fun learning new things but i have a problem, the closest scenes to me are over an hour away by bus. My family doesn't own a car so that's out of the question. The only options i have are just playing against computer forever, going to places that are hours away, or starting up my own scene. I know that a lot of people in my school play smash (streetpass on the 3ds) so i was thinking i could do it through a club but i only have 1 controller. another problem is that the school says you must always have a teacher supervisor which is hard to get because all of the teachers at my school will say no. I can't start up a scene at home and the closest thing that I've gotten to a tournament was an event at microplay for smash 4 so should i try and make a deal of some sort with them?
If you're for sure there aren't any players or a scene closer to you (make sure you check Facebook/Smashboards thoroughly, there is most likely something or someone near you), and you don't have reliable transportation anyways, I'd say attempting to go through your school is a good idea.

If you are able to make a club, you having 1 controller shouldn't be a problem because then you can either ask people to bring their own or let them use their 3DSes as controllers if it comes to it.

As far as finding a supervisor goes, try to first find some other students at your school who definitely play the game. Once you have an actual group of people who are interested, it'll be a lot more likely that you'll be able to formally create the club by getting support from a faculty member and then may be able to arrange an after-school smashfest once a week or something like that. Try to find a younger teacher, they're typically more interested in video games than the older ones (obviously).

Hope that helps.
