Clash Royale esports athletes may win a trip to Mumbai....

 

Today Global Esports Federation (GEF), formally invited its Member Federations to register for the Mumbai 2025 Global Esports Games (GEG25). The GEG25 World Finals will be held in Mumbai, India, from 26 February to 1 March 2026. 

 

Entry is for the following titles: 

 

• DOTA 2 (PC): FIVE (5) Athletes + ONE (1) Coach per team, per country/territory  
• Clash Royale (Mobile): ONE (1) Athlete per country/territory 

 

Since MSSA has already selected its DotA team for IESF's WEC25 (which is still to be held), MSSA shall be using the selected Protea Team for the DotA esports period for GEG25.

However, a Registered Player has not yet been selected for Clash Royale and noting that entries must be submitted by 28 January 2026, MSSA shall select the winner, or the highest ranked player if the winner cannot attend, at the Northern Cape Online Championships to be held on 24 January 2026 if:

1. The Registered Player is affiliated to a member club,
2. The player has a current passport,  and
3. Signed Senior Contract (Please note only Registered Players who are 18 years or older of age are eligible for this event), and
4. Confirmation to attend events (test matches and other matches).

Colin Webster, President of Mind Sports South Africa, stated, "This is a remarkable achievement by Global Esports Federation to still deliver to its members and athletes. Unfortunately there is little time afforded to the members to be as comprehensive as possible in selecting a Registered Player for the Clash Royale esports title. Nevertheless, MSSA and its Board are confident that the right person will rise to the top".

The Senior Contract can be found on: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NHcMGH5G97JA-UbMejpH5AnYjZ4eRChV/edit
