History
PES Society was constituted in 2013, however, it was not until November 2019 that the PES Society formed with a committee formally announced. When the organization started, the goal was just to host Pro Evolution Soccer tournaments due to a lack of them in and around Cape Town with the aim of showing players that there was a platform for Pro Evolution Soccer players to compete on.
