On behalf of the BISA Football Technical Committee, I would like to thank the coaches, officials, players and all the stakeholders involved in the just-ended national finals. Teacher coaches must be thanked for without them we wouldn’t have witnessed the quality displayed by our teams throughout the tournament.

We seem to be getting better every year in terms of play and organisation. Our gratitude goes to the Letshwiti led BFA for their continued support as we continue to use the facilities for free. Not many people know that we hijacked the BFA annual program to include the CAF C license course in March, and it bore fruits since 70 % of coaches who reached the national finals attended the same. Teacher coaches are encouraged to invest more in their own coaching education for their own growth and development.

The FIFA Time for Change project which just ended in Kasane, will be in Maun from Monday till Friday. Letters of attendance have already been sent the subzone coordinators with regards to this.

Finally, I still maintain that teachers remain the pin code if as a country we want to qualify for any major international showpiece like the Nations Cup. Let’s keep those injured in our prayers and where we erred as a committee we will improve next year.

CAF C coaching course for coaches in women’s football officially began today, marking the first day of a week-long training program that will run until April 14, 2025, at the Lekidi Football Centre.

Aimed at enhancing the skills of coaches in women’s football, the course has attracted 30 participants from various regions across the country, including areas such as Nhabe, Tsabong, Hukuntsi, Central, and the FRAFA regions. Notably, two of the participants come from the national team: current Mares midfielder Golebaone Selebatso and former Mares defender Lebogang Setereke.

The course, designed to provide in-depth coaching knowledge and technical expertise, is led by experienced instructor Sepheko Motlhagodi. The course is being coordinated by the BFA Women’s Football Development and Grassroots Instructor Ms. Barobi Nwako, ensuring that participants receive top-notch training throughout the program.

The CAF C coaching course aims to empower and upskill local coaches to help elevate women’s football in Botswana, with a special focus on developing the next generation of talent in the sport. By the end of the course, attendees are expected to have gained the essential tools and insights to further their coaching careers and contribute to the growth of women’s football in Botswana.

As the days progress, the participants will be engaging in various sessions, blending theory and practical work, ensuring a well-rounded learning experience that will benefit both the individuals involved and the football community at large.
