Gansbaai based club 'Fear Gaming Esports' affiliates to MSSA.

With Mind Sports South Africa (MSSA) having agreed to host Call of Duty Mobile (CODM) at its 2021 South African National Championships on 4 December 2021, more-and-more clubs are taking the plunge and affiliating to MSSA.

The 'plunge' involves clans becoming proper legal entities as clubs. This will benefit all athletes in the long run as there will be good governance and transparency.

Athletes will also be able to battle it out for Regional, Provincial, and National Colours as they climb their way up towards earning a place in South Africa's Protea Team.

Nadia Henrico, Chairwoman of Fear Gaming, has seen the possibilities of running a legal club, and has already expressed her desire to help make esports more accessible to South African children, and especially females.

Fear Gaming Esports was formed with the aim of catering to those wanting a little something more and different to the norm.

The club caters for the more mature gamer, and those wanting to challenge their skills and get out of their comfort zones. The club holds its activities in a controlled and friendly atmosphere where good sportsmanship is promoted.

Weekly 'scrims' are played with invited fellow clans/clubs where meta weapons are taken out of the equation to make things more challenging, and much more fun.

Fear Gaming Esports proudly hosts 'Lethal Ladies scrims'. Such scrims are reserved only for females, with no male participation whatsoever, wherein pink weapons and camo are encouraged.

Ms. Amanda Pakade, MSSA President, has expressed her delight in having Nadia within the fold. Ms. Pakade said, "Having more people within MSSA, who share MSSA's vision of making esports into a delivery system, is a delight and a honour".

MSSA is confident that Fear Gaming will have a long and fruitful association with MSSA.

Esports comes of age.

With some major esports events having started in the 1990's it is only natural that all ages would be interested in participating in esports events.

Mind Sports South Africa (MSSA) hs already discussed such a championship with South African Masters Sports Association a number of years ago. However, at such time, there were not enough older athletes participating to make it worthwhile.

Nevertheless, Chinese Taipei Esports Association (CTESA) has now beaten MSSA to the punch. 

With CTESA's dynamic approach to esports, under the leadership of Hsu Pei-Ching (CTESA President), CTESA is one of the most efficient esports national federations.

The stream for CTESA's League of Legends for athletes in their 60's may be viewed on: https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?ref=watch_permalink&v=472698230827174
