Change of attitude key if BNSC is to make even bigger strides

The Botswana National Sports Council (BNSC) has transformed into the Botswana National Sport Commission, and with every little change, even in a name, one would expect some kind of change on the modus operandi. Not too much, as this is a continuation, but whether we like it or not, there will be some kind of change and I’m confident the change will be positive.

Over the years, the Botswana National Sport Commission, erstwhile Botswana National Sports Council, has been at the forefront of sport development in the country. They have had huge successes and a few knocks here and there. On the whole they have covered themselves in glory. As I always say, I’m a positive person and I always look for positives before I look for negatives. And what I have seen and observed over the years with the BNSC, they have done well for sport in the country. With an even bigger budget, I’m pretty confident they could have done even more.

In the current Minister of Youth, Sport and Culture, the BNSC has an energetic, always available leader who will always be on the prowl, encouraging and demanding results. In Solly Reikeletseng, they have a shrewd, tough as teak marshal who will always implore more delivery.
