The tournament will feature four nations, Namibia, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and the hosts Botswana.

Botswana play Mozambique in the opening match this morning at 9:30am.

Botswana has 15 players in camp under the guidance of BCA development officer, Elvis Chipfumbu. However, Botswana will miss the services of hard-hitting Shameela Mosweu who has graduated to the senior team. Florence Samanyika captains the team.
