A storm is brewing over the refurbishment of the Selebi-Phikwe tennis courts with members of the Botswana Tennis Association (BTA) querying the tender process. As a result of the suspected flawed procedure, the BTA is in the process of engaging the contractor to register displeasure at the workmanship.

The tennis courts were refurbished for P150,000 from the International Tennis Federation (ITF) Grand Slam Development Fund. The funds were released to BTA in 2015 and the contractor was appointed in December 2016.
