The Eswatini Angling Association (EAA) is the official governing body for angling and fishing sports in the Kingdom of Eswatini. As a recognized National Sports Association under the Eswatini Sport and Recreation Council, we oversee competitive fishing events across the country's dams and waterways, managing national team selections and promoting the sport at both grassroots and elite levels.

Our mission is to develop angling talent across the nation, organize competitive events, and prepare our anglers to represent Eswatini with pride on the international stage.
