BW Sports in 2024🇧🇼: A year of triumph and challenges. From historic wins to emerging stars, Botswana’s athletes proved their mettle globally while showcasing untapped potential and systemic hurdles.Botswana's sports sector shone in 2024, with historic achievements across athletics, football, tennis, and motor racing. Despite triumphs that inspired the nation, challenges in funding and structural development remain a focus.The year saw athletes like Tebogo dominate global stages, the Zebras clinch their spot in AFCON, and emerging talents in tennis and para-athletics rise to prominence. Sponsorship deals, such as FNBB’s football partnership, fueled growth, but systemic gaps in infrastructure and talent nurturing still need addressing for sustained success.While 2024 celebrated Botswana’s sporting heroes, the question lingers:Can we turn this momentum into a legacy for the next generation?#sportsnation #botswanasports ...

BOXING USED TO BE UP THERE-SUNDAY STANDARD🥺🥊"Not so long ago, Botswana boxing stood as one of the country’s foremost sporting codes along with the likes of athletics. The sheer number of quality boxers it produced annually was on par with the best across the continent and perhaps the world. Products of this sporting code were household names, and rightly so!France Mabiletsa, the second ever Motswana athlete to win a medal at the Commonwealth Games, a feat achieved way back in 1994 came from the code. Other household names from the sport’s yesteryears include Dintwa Sloca, Johannes Ditlhabang, Bruno Nyathi, Elliot Mmila and Thuso ‘Scud’ Khubamang, just to mention but a few",writes Sunday Standard/ The Telegraph .#sportsnation#botswanaboxing ...

OPINION😉:LAZINESS WONT TAKE MAPONDA FAR-EDWARD OBOLOKILE"This player need to be told the truth , his character of laziness and not being serious in the field of play won't take him to the furthest he is suppose to go. Thabo Maponda He is such a player who never track back and help in defensive duties , I watched him in a lot of games doing the same thing but the last 2 games I watched him he was more than worse . He will lose the ball and all his teammates will reset to get behind the ball , by the time Gaborone United players recover the ball and play long , he will be found in the same position he was left leading to offsides and GU having to be numerical disadvantaged. I saw Lebogang Ditsele having to talk to him about it yesterday against Sua Flamingoes . This attitude will deny him to play for National and will also drop his play . He is talented and shouldn't let this ruin or deny him the best he is.",writes Football Analyst Edward Obolokile.#sportsnation#botswanafootball ... See MoreSee Less
