Shortage of venues, branding spoil First Division League

“We were competing for playing grounds with clubs from other divisions. This resulted in serious shortage of grounds,” Rapula Gaotlhobogwe said. “On several occasions clubs had to intervene and assist the league committee to source grounds, which helped the situation. The issue will be discussed extensively and a possible solution be found at the league assembly in Palapye on May 30”.

Rapula said the situation made it difficult for supporters to travel with their teams. He explained that sometimes, teams had to play at venues far from their support base. He said the division’s general assembly will address the issue of branding and kit sponsorship.
