Clubs urged to help with mental issues

However, TAFIC centre back and former national player Gobonyeone Selefa has said that the trend in which coaches bear the responsibility of ‘improvised psychologists or social workers’ has to stop.

He stated that there is need for clubs to engage skilled people to deal with psychological and social challenges faced by players. Selefa was speaking at a counselling seminar organised by Football Union Botswana (FUB) in Francistown recently. FUB had organised the seminar in a bid to provide counselling to players from various leagues.
