Sparks are expected to fly tomorrow as members of the Botswana Rugby Union (BRU) meet in an ordinary general meeting (OGM) scheduled for Botho University in Gaborone.

It remains to be seen if the executive committee will emerge from the meeting unscathed, as the Union prepares for next February’s annual general meeting (AGM).

It has been a tough year for the BRU, from disciplinary issues on and off the pitch, poor showing by The Vultures, to boardroom shenanigans by the BRU executive committee. Early this year, the executive committee could not present a financial report at the AGM, citing late submission by the auditors. Affiliates will be keen to see whether the report will be finally presented and adopted.
