Botswana Softball Association (BSA) president Tirelo 'Scania' Mukokomane will seek another term in elections scheduled for March.

The softball boss still believes he has a lot to offer the sport. He said his executive committee has achieved a lot after nine months in office. "We managed to send the junior team to the Netherlands for the World Junior Championships," he said. He added that they successfully managed the Ipelegeng League and introduced softball to primary schools. Mukokomane hopes that other codes have learnt something from their league. He encouraged other sports codes to consider playing self-sponsored leagues when they cannot get sponsors.

The softball chief revealed that it is a challenge to run sports as most administrators are employed elsewhere. He said Botswana sports will grow if all stakeholders work together. He said there is need for attitude and behaviour change by all stakeholders for sport to develop. Mukokommane said some sports administrators lose sight and put their interests before that of the people they are supposed to serve.
