The Botswana football season came to a close this past weekend. The beMobile Premier League and the Debswana First Division Leagues came to a gripping conclusion. Up until the last day, we did not know as to who would win the Championships, who would get into the Top 8 positions, who would get relegated and who would get into the play-offs.
It was a rather interesting if not controversial season that delivered action on and off the field. The Mascom Top 8 also came to a close a few months back and as usual, it attracted a lot of attention. To a large extent, and despite the controversies, I would say sponsors got their monies worth. beMobile, Mascom, Orange, Debswana and all the others that are associated with football do get a lot of mentions and are quite visible. That is the power of football.
