MSSA - keeps on growing!

Mind Sports South Africa (MSSA) is South Africa's largest membership based organisation for gaming.

Not only that, but MSSA is second only to KeSPA in size as MSSA currently has over 90 clubs affiliated to it.

The success that MSSA enjoys is due to the dedication of its volunteers.

MSSA runs over 30 events a year, selects the national teams, provides umpiring courses, does development at school and grass root level, generates regulations for the good governance of gaming, and constantly brings gaming to the forefront. All of this is done by volunteers!

The membership base forms a solid and loyal base. Thus it is thanks to this base, that MSSA's blog page has grown in popularity.

It is on this blog page that MSSA brings out notification of its events and allows member clubs to advertise their own events, and for itself and its members to express their opinions.

However, MSSA also makes use of other social media such as Facebook and Twitter. The addresses of such are:

A number of dramatic changes have occurred  in 2017 in Mind Sports South Africa to make MSSA a better and more representative national federation..

Such changes include the election of Morizane Boyes as President, making her the first female to ever hold such office, as well as true gender equity being attained on MSSA's Management Board.

2017 too sees the National Squad for League of Legends also having gender equity. As a result it only stands to reason that Protea teams selected such squad will further reflect the massive changes occurring within MSSA - and the country as a whole.

Thus the League of Legends team selected to do battle against Switzerland (as represented by SESF) in an official IeSF test match on 9 September 2017 sees, for the first time, twice as many females included than ever before.

Such inclusion of both Simone Beck and Jade Klein is largely due to the efforts of Maryke Kennard who broke through many of the preconceived notions and was a valuable asset to both the 2015 and 2016 Protea Teams that participated in both Seoul and Jakarta.

The Protea team to play against Switzerland shall consist of the following players:

• Brandon Fester (Captain), 
• Simone Beck, 
• Jade Klein, 
• Connor Cryans, and 
• Brett Whitehead 

MSSA is convinced that the Protea Team will do South Africa proud as they play from MWEB's MCAVE on 9 September 2017.
