Highlanders seek nod to play at Railways Ground

During the 2012-2013 when they were in the Premier League, Highlanders used the Molepolole Sports Complex as their home ground. Highlanders chairperson, Witness Phuthego told Mmegi Sport that playing all their matches away had a negative impact on their efforts to stay in the Premier League. The team was subsequently relegated.

Phuthego said they expect the Premier League to allow them to use their home ground next season. He said if their request is turned down, it would be unfair as the Railways Ground is better than Palapye Swallows Ground, which was used last season. “We expect to get a positive response from the Premier League.
