Results: 21st North West Provincial Championships

Sinister5 with their Provincial Colours certificates.

As the year continues with its relentless march forward, players frantically scramble for a place in MSSA's National Team Trials.

Thus MSSA's 21st North West Championships is the third last championship in which players may qualify for such Trials.

For those teams that have qualified, the work has begun in earnest in order to hone their skills for Trials, while some players are still desperately trying to qualify.


MSSA's 21st North West Provincial Championships were hosted by Curro Klerksdorp
.

Thanks must be extended to Curro Klerksdorp and especially Hannes Esterhuizen.

The championship attracted players from the Eastern Cape, Free State, Gauteng, North West, and Mpumulanga.

Players battled it out to earn the various titles of North West Champion, and the right to fight for a place in the 2017 National Team Trials that will ultimately deliver a team to the IeSF's 2017 9th World Championships later in 2017.

The  standard at MSSA's north west Championships has certainly improved, and the championship was  characterised by some very fierce competition.

DotA 2 was dominated by 
Sinister5. The newly affiliated team dominated their opponents in order to take first place and secure their berth in the National Team Trials.
