The football body says it awaits a full report from COSAFA and CAF following an age cheating scandal. On Friday, the Diamond Zebras were disqualified from the ongoing COSAFA Under-17 Championship after players failed Magnetic Resonance Test (MRI) test, which is mandatory for all participating teams to ascertain players’ ages. The tests showed that Botswana had fielded over age players and alongside Comoros, eSwatini and Zimbabwe they were booted out of the tournament for the similar offence.
In a statement released on Saturday, the BFA says it has since opened investigations into the matter.
