The Footballers Union of Botswana (FUB) is this year celebrating 10 years of existence but despite the milestone, the union’s secretary general, Kgosana Masaseng says it has been a rough ride.

Masaseng said when the union was formed, it was at a time when there was a bit of transformation. He revealed that there was too much resistance from the administrators and it ended up brewing a toxic relationship between the union and the football leadership.

“The challenge was also on the part of the players who did not understand why they needed to unionise,” he recalled.
