The
MWEB 20th Western Cape Championships that was played on 22 &
23
August 2015 and which was hosted by Fairmont High School,
Durbanville
proved to be a great success. Elize Crouse proved to be a most
efficient administrator, and the problems with which the MSSA had
to
deal with were unexpected late entries as well as some of the
teams
not being aware of the rules of the competition.
What
proved
to be most pleasing was the number of learners that had
attended the event. In fact only four events out of the 11 for
which
there were sufficient entries were not won by learners, and then
three out of the four were won by educators.
Of
course, much of the growth in the championship is due to the
announcement by the MSSA that it will be sending a full team to
the
7th IeSF World Championships in Seoul in December 2015.
The
strength of gaming at school level bodes well for the growth of
gaming both nationally and internationally.
With
so
many learners more than ably competing with their older
counterparts, the MSSA is confident that it will find a great deal
of
talent in the schools. This talent, will be nurtured in order to
provide a more aggressive competitive base in South Africa, which
will hopefully be able to be translated into results on the
international stage.
Thus
it
was not surprising to see the MSSA hand out Senior and High School
Provincial Colours to no less than 36 gamers.
