No cash for junior athletics team

The Botswana National Sport Commission (BNSC) incentive policy does not include junior teams but only the seniors benefit. This means it is now the discretion of the Ministry of Youth Empowerment, Sport and Culture Development (MYSC) to decide if the team will be given some incentives or not.

Unlike the Olympics team that was showered with gifts and a welcome ceremony upon return, as the week comes to an end, it was still unclear what was planned for the team. However, it emerged that there was no ceremony due to COVID-19 restrictions.
