Jason Batzofin at IeSF's 8th world Championships - Jakarta |
No fewer than 62% of the membership turned up to the AGM.
After noting the sad passing of Sylvia Webster (who was a member of the sub-club from 1989 to 2016), business commenced.
At such AGM, the sub-club saw a changing of the guard, with Jason Batzofin being elected in as the sub-club's 4th chairperson.
Previous chairpersons were:
- Ewan Retief (2016)
- Colin Webster (1991 to 2015)
- Richard Kassman (1989 to 1991)
Even Jason is a twice Junior World Champion for wargames having won such title in 2014 and then in 2015.
Jason Batzofin, who is also MSSA’s Player Representative and has also earned his Protea Colours for CounterStrike: GO in 2015 and then again in 2016 for his role at the Protea Team Manager.
The Old Edwardian Wargames Club has had representation
in every national team for figure games since 1991 in international
competitions on an annual basis, and has established South Africa as
