Mind Sports South Africa

Mind Sports South Africa was formally constituted on 14 December 1985. However, it was not until 1990 that MSSA became a member of NOCSA in 1990, and in 1991 that the MSSA became affiliated to COSAS. Thus when the Sports and Recreation Act (number110 of 1998) was amended, the official recognition of Mind Sports South Africa was enforced and MSSA became a founding member of SASCOC. The Sport and Recreation Act of 1998 (as amended) guarantees MSSA as being the only authority for the administration and control of the games that fall under MSSA’s jurisdiction.
