Coaches trim softball squad for world cup

Lebogang Goetswang, BDF IX’s Gaone Letshwenyo, Bears’ Tuna Passman, Boitshwarelo Sefo and Lorato Kenaope of Dinare did not make the final 17 but were advised to keep training because they could be called up in case of injuries or loss of form.

Late call-ups Pauline Tukisi of Rail Giants and Dinare’s Lobopo Otlhomile, who were picked after outstanding performances in the final between Dinare and BDF IX, recently kept their places in the squad. Dinare catcher Bonolo Molefe is out of the team after failing to recover from a knee injury. The team manager, Same Molete said the training seemed to be a little hectic as some players struggled with fitness because of a long lay-off. Players who turned out for teams that did not qualify for the Vivo Top Four have been out of action for a long time.
