Hoërskool Zwartkop heads the official DotA 2 rankings

MSSA thanks its partners for their continued support.

Hoërskool Zwartkop is proud of its reputation of nurturing winners.

In one short year the school has moved into pole position in Mind Sports South Africa's (MSSA) official ranking for the DotA 2 esports title. This is the first time ever that a school in Centurion has held such a commanding position.

Of course the entire 2019 year awaits, and with over 14 DotA 2 events in which the school could participate, it will be interesting to see if the young team will be able to maintain its position of pre-eminence.

The position held by Hoërskool Zwartkop further re-inforces MSSA's belief that the true development of esports must first take place at school level.
