Taken for a ride: Hockey players feel cheated over the Namibian trip

Parents whose children were part of the Under-21 team, which travelled to Namibia for the Africa Hockey Championships, are demanding a refund from the Botswana Hockey Association (BHA).

Parents contributed P5,000 each towards the trip. The Botswana team returned last Friday after withdrawing from the competition, which ran from March 18 to 24, 2016.

One of the parents said they feel cheated after paying the money and their child ending up not playing. Players who travelled to Namibia have also accused BHA of mistreatment. The parents want the BHA to refund them.
