Lack of venue hurts volleyball

As if that is not enough, the federation is struggling to attract sponsors. Despite the odds stacked against it, the BVF Golden Cup finals will be played at the IHS Molepolole tomorrow. BVF president, Tsoseletso Magang told MmegiSport that they were optimistic they would find a sponsor before the tournament ends.

“For the BVF to do it alone has been a serious challenge, especially since the drive has been focused on securing sponsors. We need to keep volleyball activities going so that sponsors can see that in the media,” she said. Magang said it is a challenge trying to convince potential sponsors to consider volleyball when it is nowhere to be appreciated. She stated that they get very little support from government. “P750,000 to stay in tier one with all that is expected of us is a bit of a stretch.
