MOGODITSHANE: The inaugural Netball Pitso that was held at Sir Seretse Khama Barracks (SSKB) auditorium over the weekend was overshadowed by low turnout.

Clubs that were present include Notwane, BDF, Jwaneng, Morupule while UB attended briefly. The Pitso was meant for Botswana Netball Association (BONA) affiliates and executive committee to introspect and map the way forward. BONA president, Mpopi Moatlhodi told Sport Monitor that the low turnout was due to the many activities that were taking place at the same time. She said despite that, things went according to plan. In her welcome remarks, Moatlhodi said the Pitso was an opportunity for netball to reflect on its journey, to celebrate success and confront challenges with honesty.

She added it was also meant to allow them to collectively shape the future of netball in Botswana by strengthening governance, enhancing development pathways, improving competitiveness and improving sustainability at all levels of the sport.
