Mind
Sports South Africa (MSSA) always seeks to provide the very
best to South African
eSports athletes in terms of the various events
that it delivers year-in and year-out.
Thus MSSA continually seeks out 'blue-chip' companies with which to partner.
It is therefore, is not surprising that MSSA and G2A started discussing a possible partnership as early as 2013 in order to fully develop the South African gaming community.
Of particular concern to MSSA is the dearth of females participating in competition level as well as those who were previously disadvantaged.

| Emily 'QueenE' Krumlinde |
Both G2A
and Mind Sports
South Africa supports equality and women’s rights at South
Africa!
Well known from their gaming support G2A
Company, joined
to Mind Sports South Africa in organizing Emily 'QueenE' Krumlinde
tour in South Africa. Emily is a female StarCraft player and
will
visit Johannesburg and Cape Town to promote gaming among females
in
South Africa. Whole event was created to pay attention for
equality
and women’s rights.
“QueenE’s” schedule for her visit (which may be viewed on MSSA's facebook page) shall consist of two test matches (consisting of two games) between Emily (representing Sweden) against South African top female and male StarCraft gamers in Johannesburg and in Cape Town.
The venue in Johannesburg is THE H.I.V.E. in Montecasino, Fourways, while the Cape Town venue shall be the MWEB Auditorium in Century City.
Emily shall also be introduced to some of South Africa's most prestigious schools where Emily shall give an insight into what it takes to be a professional gamer. This is to further enthuse scholars about taking gaming seriously and to further inform them about international competitions.
“In our opinion, the rights of women in South Africa, despite many efforts still tend to be neglected. We believe that women should pay attention to the fact that they should be treated on an equal footing with men. Through entertainment and computer games, we can more easily reach out to young women” – said a G2A spokesperson.
Both Mind Sports South Africa and G2A are hoping that this event will show women they can be treated equally with men.

However, in order for the market to grow,
gaming needs to be made far more accessible.
