The latest development means that the current BFA president, Maclean Letshwiti, will run for his third term unopposed. As a result, he will now become the first BFA president to win a third consecutive term.

However, Goemeone Tebele, Normal Sebele, Bathusi Rathari, Vincent Mafuta, Rabbie Tshosa and Moreotsile Juta will battle for the positions of additional members. Suzie Montsho and Thabang Shadikong will stand for the positions of additional female member.
