With President Cyril Ramaphosa via a nationally televised address on Sunday March 15, 2020 declaring coronavirus a national disaster, Mind Sports South Africa (MSSA) has heeded to the call.
MSSA will thus be doing its first Online Provincial Championships on 28 March 2020. MSSA’s 1st Western Cape Online Provincial Championships, which will offer local players the opportunity to qualify for selection to the national squad and for the Protea Team that will attend IESF’s World Championships to be held in Eilat in November 2020.
MSSA’s popular LAN Provincial Championships has thus not been replaced by this event, the LAN Championship has merely been delayed until the situation permits as, due to government regulation, no venue may have more than 100 people. Thus MSSA will relook at a date for the Western Cape LAN Championships.
