North West University is an active participant in MSSA events. |
It should be noted that International Esports Federation (IESF), the only global esports body in the world is in partnership with International University Sports Federation (FISU) in order to have esports recognized as a true sport at university level.
Thus while MSSA also has awards for students at all of its Premier Provincial and National Championships, MSSA also runs additional championships for students which allows MSSA to host those esports titles that are only for mature audiences.
Since most students at tertiary education level are of the age of majority, students in these dedicated championships are able to play esports titles which would, otherwise, require additional logistics.
It should be noted that persons who are under age, by law, are not allowed to even watch titles which are not appropriate.
The championships shall allow players not only to earn medals, but also enable students to earn student provincial colours.
The colours shall be based upon residency, so even if a Registered Player is originally from Louis Trichardt, but is studying at Stellenbosch as a boarder, such player may earn Western Cape student provincial colours.
Thus, it is at MSSA's Student Championships that students are able to play esports titles which have 18 age restrictions.
The titles to be played at all MSSA student specific championships are as follows:
Period/genre | Title | Platform | Age restriction | Players |
Shooter | CS GO | PC, | 16 | 5 v 5 |
Call of Duty – Modern Warfare | PS4 | 18 | 5 v 5 | |
