Third change in the Under-17 technical team :: Mmegi Online

The national Under-17 football coach, Boniface Lekaba will not travel with the team for their crucial 2018 World Cup qualifier encounter against Zambia, according to the Botswana Football Association (BFA). The BFA said Lekaba has been held up by work commitments and will be replaced by Tapaphiwa Gaebolae.

“The young girls will be under the mentorship of coach Tapaphiwa Gaebolae who replaces both coach Boniface Lekaba and coach Temogo Benjamin who have had to remain behind due to work commitments. Coach Gaebolae will be assisted by Barobi Ngwako and goalkeeper coach Israel Molao,” the statement reads.

Gaebolae becomes the third face to take charge of the team in a space of just four months. In June at the National Women Football annual general meeting, Benjamin was announced as the head coach but she was replaced with Lekaba prior to the start of the team’s training camp last week.
