Township Rollers' head coach, Oarabile Seabo, has emphasised the need for psychological support for his players as they navigate the remainder of the season amidst numerous off-field challenges.

Speaking in a post-match interview after his side were thrashed 4-0 by arch-rivals, Gaborone United, on Saturday evening at the GU Stadium, he stressed the importance of mental support in keeping the team afloat in the Premier League. Rollers is currently going through a tough patch, having managed just one win in their last five games league games. They currently sit in 8th place in the Botswana Premier League standings.

“A very disappointing outcome, something that we didn’t anticipate at all. Unfortunately, we lost by four goals to nil against Gaborone United today. It’s a derby game, and always when you play derby game, we always go all out to try and get the maximum points and bragging rights of the city but unfortunately today it's not meant to be,” said Seabo.
