Tonota FC's demotion marks rebuilding sojourn

Club owner, Bontshetse Maokaneng said the time they will spend in the third tier will merely be a rebuilding exercise. Maokaneng watched in frustration last weekend as his troops lost 5-1 to First Division debutants, Sankoyo Bush Bucks in Maun.

The heavy loss signalled the demotion of his team to Division One after a spectacular rise from that division two years ago. He said they will rebuild the side around three teenage players next season. "We will be releasing some of our aging players to pave the way for other youngsters. Some of the senior members in the team will however, remain to guide the youngsters," he said.
