Phikwe Extravaganza Softball tournament defending champions, Police have been disqualified after missing yesterday's 2pm registration deadline.

The other clubs that missed the deadline in the South Zone are Gatalamotho and Blue Angels. In the North, only three teams have managed to register for the eliminations set for the weekend.

Botswana Softball Association spokesperson, Kelly Monyake confirmed that the deadline for registration was Wednesday. When pushed further, Monyake explained that unfortunately at the moment nothing official could be confirmed.
