Marole's Plea To BNSC

Debswana managing director, Blackie Marole has urged the Botswana National Sports Council (BNSC) and its affiliates to make sure that their sponsors get value for their money by winning medals in international competitions.

"We all want to be associated with winners, not perpetual losers," Marole said. He said there is need to come up with better-performing national teams at international level. Marole said though the private sector has made remarkable progress in helping the government sponsor sports, regrettably the results in competitions are not good. He was speaking at the BNSC sponsors' night. Different sponsors were honoured at the function for their support in 2009. 

Marole said sponsors get into partnerships largely to increase their business opportunities and to improve their image. He said everything is possible as countries like Uruguay have shown by reaching the semi-finals of the World Cup.
