Screening delays appeal verdict

The First Instance Body (FIB), an organ under the Botswana Football Association (BFA) responsible for issuing club licenses, recently ruled that Notwane, Extension Gunners, Mahalapye Railway Highlanders, Gilport Lions and Mogoditshane Fighters had failed to meet requirements needed to attain a full club license.

The five, among other requirements, had failed to submit audited financial reports, failed to furnish players’ contracts and lack of requisite coaching qualifications and were given a three-day period until August 19, 2021, to appeal the decision.
