BetXplosion invited Kolantsho, one of Botswana’s most respected sport voices, with a particular passion for elevating local sport. Rather than simply tell fans what the prize looks like, BetXplosion wanted someone fans trust to live it and report back. Kolantsho will walk the same path the winner will, the preparation, the travel, match day in the stadium, and the return home. Throughout, the trip he will share daily updates on his personal Social Media pages and on BetXplosion’s channels, showing fans exactly what the winner can expect, from the moment they take their seat.
“We wanted Batswana to see this prize through the eyes of someone they trust. Kolantsho has spent his career championing our sport, and his daily updates will show every customer what is waiting at the end of the journey,” said Galeakelwe ‘GK’ Kolaatamo, BetXplosion Finance and Operations Manager.
Live Your Joy is BetXplosion’s partnership with EPL Sports Promotions, a locally owned sports tourism company specialising in premium live sporting experiences. It is built around one simple idea, turning sporting passion into moments Batswana can see, feel, and remember.
Over the course of the partnership, customers will have the chance to win three extraordinary sporting, two football experiences and one Formula 1 experience. The first campaign runs from September 13, 2026 to January 13, 2027. The winner will choose when to travel and which of their favourite teams to watch live.
The Live Your Joy is designed to bring the experience closer to sport fans across Botswana, not only the winner. The campaign has already held three activations in Tlokweng, Mochudi, and Maun. Next, Live Your Joy comes to the BetXplosion store in Bontleng, mid-October followed by Francistown on November 1, before the campaign returns to Gaborone for the finale and the winner announcement.
