IESF's African Regional Championships - FINAL RESULTS - Tuesday, 29 July 2025.

Richard Henry (Captain) lead the South African Protea Esports Team for the PUBGM title to a very credible fourth place finish. The  final day of play can be seen on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQq6ZuoouYU

Even though Egypt lead from star to finish and triumphed over all, the South African Protea Esports Team for the PUBGM title battled on determined to give their best and uphold the honour of South Africa in this tough international championship. Seventeen African countries participated in total.

However, the standard of play of Egypt, Algeria and Morocco is just on a different level. Even though the three countries were disadvantaged by bad latency (ping), the skills that the three countries have honed by being able to effectively play on European servers meant that the three countries are almost untouchable by the rest of Africa.

Game 10 results!
Nevertheless, South Africa finished in a very credible 4th place.

The South African Protea Esports Team for the PUBGM title team managed to win game 10 in a championship where the majority of the 12 games were won by Egypt, Algeria, and Morocco. Winning game 10 was thus no small feat!

South Africa winning game 10, and finishing 4th overall, establishes South Africa  as the strongest African team barring the juggernaughts of  Egypt, Algeria, and Morocco.

The South African Protea Esports Team for the PUBGM title has thus improved on its 2024 position where it finished in fifth position.

There is obviously a lot more work that South African PUBGM athletes and coaches must do in order to raise their standard of play to equal, or hopefully better, the standard of play of Egypt, Morocco and Algeria.
