Street Fighter V - Players who have qualified for National Team Trials at the 6th Limpopo Championships.

Chantél Cronjé - the 'rose' among the 'thorns'.

Even though Mind Sports South Africa (MSSA) has yet to select a national Protea Team for the Street Fighter V esports title, MSSA still keeps accurate record of those that qualify for its National Team Trials. The reason is two-fold, being:

• Players enter Trials not onlybased on esports title, but may enter based on genre, and
• MSSA is attempting to hold online test matches in Street Fighter V.

With only 3 senior Provincial esports championships left before MSSA's National Team Trials (NTT) which are to be held on 2 & 3 June 2018, the race is on to see who will be selected.

The three events left are:

• 23rd North West Championships - 24 & 25 March 2018, and
• MSSA's Annual Online Provincial Championships - 21 April 2018, and
• 17th Mpumulanga Championships - 26 & 27 May 2018.

Thus at MSSA's 6th Limpopo Championships for the esports title for Street Fighter V four (4) players qualified for National Team Trials for such period should trials be held for such period.

Trials for any title (period) are always held at the discretion of Mind Sports South Africa.

The venue for the National Team Trials shall be announced within the 1st week of April of each year.

National Team Trials for esports shall be held on 2 and 3 June 2018.

The criteria to qualify for such trials all Registered Players that win a Regional Championship shall earn an  invitation to National Team Trials.

Also, all Registered Players that score within the top 20% or top three places, whichever is greater, in a specific Period at a Provincial or National Championship shall earn an invitation to National Team Trials.

It should be remembered that members of the current Protea Squad automatically earn a berth at the National Team Trials (NTT) should they have met their obligations in terms of participation at MSSA events.
