Do Away with Volunteerism – Zakhem Urges Chiefs

Speaking during the first panel discussion at the Chiefs Annual General Meeting (AGM) held at Botsalo Hotel in Palapye, Zakhem argued that volunteerism has stalled progress in local football for years. He emphasised that clubs need a structured administrative set-up where personnel are employed permanently, bound by contracts, and held accountable for their performance.

He believes professionalised staffing ensures resource availability, task ownership, and long-term commitment, which are key ingredients for the growth and commercialisation of football clubs.
