Gawie Fick breaks through the 300 point barrier!

Gawie Fick (Fakkel School, Sasolburg) with his Provincial Colours award.

The Tekken Ladder continues to grow from month-to-month.

With IeSF having  announced that TEKKEN 7 is to be a supported title at IeSF's 9th World Championships - Busan, there is even a greater enthusiasm for the game.

As mentioned previously, MSSA has sent Protea Esports Teams for Tekken to the World Championships in 2012, 2013, and 2014.

However, it is young Gawie Fick (from Sasolburg) who continues to press forward in the game. Having won all of his games at MSSA’s 16th Mpumulanga Championships, Gawie is now truly established as the number one ranked player in South Africa. Gawie too is the first player ever to break the 300 point barrier in the seeding points.
