History beckons for chess

Tatolo, the current public relations officer, told Mmegi Sport that she was motivated to contest because she feels some of the projects that the outgoing executive committee had started need continuity by somebody who was already inside. “They do not need someone who would be starting them afresh. That would seem like certain things are not completed,” she said.

Tatolo said she has been involved in chess for more than 10 years and is accustomed to how the sport operates and how it relates to Botswana National Sport Commission, National Olympic Committee and the Ministry of Youth Empowerment, Sport and Culture Development. She said that would make her work easier when she takes over the reigns.
