Premier League rakes in P11.8 million from gate takings

Last season's Be MOBILE Premier League games were watched by more than 475,000 fans, translating into more than P11,875,000 in revenue from the turnstiles. Though Botswana Premier League general manager, Phuthego Setete could not immediately provide more details, champions, Township Rollers, were probably the competition's cash cow with healthy attendances at both their home and away matches.

Second-placed Mochudi Centre Chiefs also pulled crowds even though their season ended trophy-less. Setete said clubs received increased grants of P140,000 up from P120,000 last season accruing from television rights. He said there would be a slight increase in revenue from broadcasting rights every season.
