South Africa’s competitive gaming scene is getting bigger all the time, but there is a long way to go to reach international standards. This is word from South African eSports team manager Ryan Boyes.
Boyes told MyGaming that, like elsewhere in the world, it is important to have the right structures in place to develop eSports in South Africa.
“Both the federation and local players need to work together to achieve success. It is like this in other countries, and takes gaming to a professional level when everyone is on the same page,” said Boyes.
“We hope to see events get larger every year, and to one day have a team that we can all stand behind and be proud of.”
Projects to grow competitive gaming in South Africa
Boyes said that the MSSA has held tournaments in various provinces in South Africa to promote competitive gaming.
“The tournaments are meant for professionals and amateurs. The idea is to build relationships, and help each other improve,” he said.
“We also push hard for our high school event, as the belief to grow the gamers from a young age will help set the foundation for competitive gamers down the line.”
