Buthali revealed that at the moment, almost all the districts are in training camps for the games. "All the teams from the districts are expected to have arrived in Gaborone on Sunday. The first group is expected to arrive on Saturday (tomorrow)," he said. The programme of the games starts on Sunday with a welcome reception for all the team officials and coordinators at Boipuso Hall. Buthali disclosed that the dream to host the games has become a reality because of support from the local authorities.
