PES SOCIETY enters the select club.

 

With Riezwaan Hakim (PES SOCIETY) being selected to represent South Africa at International Esports Federation's 12th World Championships, the PES SOCIETY has made it onto the leaderboard of all the clubs that have produced Protea esports athletes. Now that PES SOCIETY has made it onto the list, it is expected that we will all see much more of this dynamic club. Mind Sports South Africa (MSSA) has made 161 awards of Protea Colours to deserving esports athletes since 2005, of which the top five clubs account for 77 of such awards. However, athletes have been drawn from 36 clubs over the years which demonstrates just how versatile and robust the system is. The system of selection has also proven itself to be fair as athletes are drawn from around the country.

The list of clubs that have generated players that have earned Protea Colours are:

Tournament Schedule for IESF Regional Qualifiers - 12th World Championships - Eilat.


International Esports Federation (IESF) has announced the dates for its upcoming Regional Tournaments of 12th Esports World Championships - Eilat, Mind Sports South Africa (MSSA) has also announced the players who will officially represent South Africa as members of the Protea Esports Team in such event.

The PES, TEKKEN 7 and DOTA 2 esports titles are expected to be hotly contested approximately 60 nations.

South Africa, through Mind Sports South Africa, will be participating in all three esports titles. MSSA, as the world's oldest national federation, is the only federation to have participated in all official titles at all IESF's World Championships since their inception in 2009.

To represent South Africa as a member of the national Protea Esports Team, a player has to be registered by a member club and be a South African citizen.

The advantages of being a member of the national Protea Esports Team are priceless, and may include earning bursaries, increases in salary, and a greater sense of personal worth.

There is nothing as rewarding as officially representing your country on the field of sport. The memories last forever, and friendships made endure.
