FRANCISTOWN: The newly established Botswana Football League (BFL) on Saturday announced the appointment of the board whose main mandate will be to commercialise the league and turn it into an attractive entity.

The news was confirmed by Monnakgotla Mojaki, who coordinates activities at the organisation in the absence of a fulltime Chief Executive Officer.  Mojaki also holds the position of general manager at Botswana Football Association (BFA).  “Apart from being an oversight body,  one of the main priority areas for the board will be to commercialise our football and turn it into a sustainable entity. The board will ensure that our football is well run and modernised. The board will also play a leading role in the appointment of the Chief Executive Officer and other key staff members,” Mojaki said.

He added: “The appointment of key staff members will be an immediate priority. The Premier League was registered as a company a long time ago, and all that was needed was to bring in staff and board members.”
