The tour also included facilities for accommodation, hospitals and restaurants to be used.  Despite that they were happy with most of the facilities, particularly the University of Botswana Indoor facility and UB Stadium, AUSC delegates are yet to give the state of readiness for Botswana to host the games.  During the tour, most of delegates were quick to give both positive and negative impressions, share ideas on how a particular facility could be improved before the games.
