Botswana Premier League (BPL) sponsor, beMOBILE has said it will await the advice of the new Botswana Football Association (BFA) leadership on the way forward regarding the distribution of prize money.

This follows the conclusion of the league programme last week after Township Rollers thumped arch-rivals Mochudi Centre Chiefs 5-1 in a play-off match to determine this season’s title winners.  Speaking to Mmegi Sport yesterday, beMOBILE head of sponsorships and consumer public relations, Tiro Kganela said they have no problem releasing the prize money, but added that they can only act on the advice of the BFA leadership.

“Remember we were instructed to go to Jwaneng where Chiefs were crowned champions and awarded medals. We were then told to go to Francistown where we refused. We were also instructed to go to Molepolole last week and we still refused to go there. There is also this issue of Gilport Lions versus Rollers at Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS),” he said.
