Masunga stadium derelict

The dire situation is not about to improve as the custodians of the complex, the Botswana National Sports Council (BNSC) have no resources to maintain it. 

“The grant we receive from the government is not enough to allow us to maintain the stadiums around the country,” said the BNSC chairperson Solly Reikeletseng in a telephone interview with Mmegi Sport this week. “If we are to devote a lot of money maintaining the sports facilities it could mean that we will not be able to focus on sports development. However, it will not be viable for any country to neglect sports development,” he said.
