BNSC anticipates improved funding

Figures show that during the last financial year, the umbrella sport body in the country received P161 million subvention from government. Speaking to MmegiSport, BNSC marketing and communications, Anderson Nlisana said they were yet to receive their 2026-2027 proposed budget allocation from the Ministry of Sport and Arts (MoSA). “We believe that the ministry is still working around the clock to close the 2024–2025 financial year and allocate for the 2026–2027 financial year simultaneously,” he said. “However, you will note that we have received a budget of P161 million in the current financial year. With projects expected to happen in the coming financial year, we are hoping for an increased budget allocation to successfully advance such projects.”

BNSC affiliates expect a bump up in budget figures in line with increased projects.
