Steep fees force squash tourney back to Gaborone

BSRA development coach, Conrad Ntshebe, said they could not afford what he called ‘exorbitant charges’ - P1,500 per day - to use the Lobatse facility for the three day event.

BSRA had wanted to host the national junior tournament in Lobatse where they intend to start development programmes. But Ntshebe said they cannot afford the P4,500 charged by the Botswana National Sport Council (BNSC). The three-day tournament will now be held at the National Squash Centre in Gaborone from today.
