Karate lays out elaborate plan

The plan outlines an approach, which will enable karate to compete and win medals at the international competitions such as the World Karate Federation (WKF) Championships and Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

BOKA recently held a High Performance workshop at the Botswana National Sport Commission (BNSC) warm up area where, amongst others, Olympic qualification framework and Botswana Long Term Development Program (LTDP), were discussed. Four assistant coaches for the junior and senior national teams were appointed on contracts running from 2018 until 2020. The coaches are on a six-month probation. Assistant coaches for the senior team are Peter Molefe and Keone Kgorotlhe. George Tshikare and Goitseone Mongologa have made a return to the junior team.
