Cycling Shun World Champs

Speaking at the association’s annual general meeting (AGM) held in Gaborone on Saturday, BCA president Mmetla Masire said their focus is on development, as they want to build a strong squad for future competitions.

“We will not send a team to the World Championships because we cannot afford it. We also feel it is not important at the moment. It is one thing to go out there to participate. You would go for a kilometre and then you would be out for a longer period. It (world champs) is not on our focus.
