Top ten schools in NWU MSSA Online School Esports League.


The 2020 NWU MSSA Online School Esports League was fiercely contested the participating schools.

Full credit must be given to Oakhill School, in particular Ms. Diana Barnard, who has diversified the club so that it now contests four of the 10 ten titles on offer.

There is no doubt that any school club that intends to have a sustainable program should ensure that it has both:

  • Activity in a number of esports titles, and
  • Depth of membership.
Participation in more than one esports title attracts greater numbers of athletes to the club. It is out of the greater number of athletes that the club will be able to find those who will excel and represent the school with pride and honour.

Having depth of membership ensures that there are always athletes who are able to take the spots of those that leave school and leave the positions open. It is those schools that have depth that continue from year-to-year, and are, in most cases successful. Those school clubs that do not pay attention to building up depth, and have a solid development program, will often see their esports club fail as soon as a key athlete leaves.

The principles of running an esports club at school level is no different to running any other sport. It takes hours of work and a great deal of dedication by the Educators in charge.

Of course, without the support  of parents, nothing would happen.

The top ten South African Esports Schools are:

Results of NWU MSSA Online School Esports League.

 


Mind Sports South Africa (MSSA) is South Africa's oldest and largest organization for esports in South Africa.

MSSA started holding esports events for schools in 2010, and since then has not missed a beat. MSSA's events are carried out like clock-work and are run on a regular basis thanks to the dedication of MSSAs' hardened volunteer corps.

And so it is that MSSA's 2020 edition of its NWU MSSA Online School Esports League has now come to an end. 

After five gruelling weeks of schools battling it out against each other, the victors' names may now be announced.

As already reported, the Online League (NWU MSSA Online School League) offers prizes other than just the medals and provincial colours. The prizes include:

  • A R30,000.00 Bursary for the winner of the Street Fighter V esports title, and
  • R5,000.00 Prize money for the School for the winner of the Paladins esports title, and
  • R5,000.00 Prize money for the School for the winner of the DotA 2 esports title, and
  • R5,000.00 Prize money for the School for the winner of the efootball PES 2020 esports title.
All the medal winners, those who have won gold, silver, and bronze, have all rightfully earned a place in MSSA's 2020 National Team Trials to be held on 19 September 2020.
