BNSC makes u-turn on decision against Badminton

Initially, the BNSC had rejected the application to host the event. The BBA president, Modisaotsile Badubi, told SportMonitor that there was a misunderstanding but the matter has been resolved and they have been given the green light by the Commission.

When asked about the budget for the tournament, Badubi was cagey with the details as he indicated that the budget is still an internal issue. “Being allowed to host the event is an incredible opportunity in all honesty. It is an opportunity to showcase our capabilities as an association to the world. Thus far we have a record number of confirmed entries, 17 countries, and we expect more countries to register,” Badubi said.
