Botswana beat Namibia on Wednesday but have faced tough competition PIC: KENNEDY RAMOKONE

The ongoing Netball Youth World Cup qualifiers are meant to gauge Botswana’s readiness for the tournament proper next year. However, the team has been asked tough questions, and has twice (as of yesterday morning) failed to respond positively.

The tournament began with a resounding 66-9 win over minnows Lesotho and the only other victory came from another lowly ranked side, Namibia.
