BFA and women soccer officials smoke peace pipe :: Mmegi Online

The Botswana Football Association (BFA) and women soccer officials have resolved their differences after a meeting last week. Women Football Commission (WFC) official, Senki Sesinyi said the meeting addressed their grievances. She stated that they realised there has been a communication breakdown between them and the BFA and this has affected the development of the women game.

The delighted Sesinyi said BFA officials behaved very professionally in the meeting in explaining issues to them. He expressed hope that this is the beginning of good things for the women game. At the centre of the dispute was the failure of the BFA to sponsor the women soccer league last year. Clubs demanded an explanation from the BFA and threatened that they will not take part in this year's league if they are not given money. The clubs wanted BFA to use the FIFA grant allocated to women football to finance the league.
