CUCSA team cut due to lack of funds

Botswana Tertiary Students Sports Association (BOTESSA) was forced to leave the women's football team, volleyball and tennis players among others due to a tight budget.

BOTESSA vice president, Tebogo Kgari said a lot of deserving players had failed to make the trip. “The women's football team (23 players) is not the only sporting code that has been dropped. We had a strong men’s volleyball team (12 players), which has been left behind. We had an initial plan of 10 tennis players travelling with us but we have only travelled with four players,” Kgari said.
