Oct 23, 2023

TSABONG: The Botswana Football Association (BFA) handed over the equipment to Tsabong Regional Football Association as FIFA women’s development programme under the women’s campaign on Saturday, October 21, at the Tsabong VDC grounds.

This is the mandate for the world football governing body as a way to achieve its objectives in their Women’s Football Development Campaign. BFA has received this equipment to boost the development programs in its already launched grassroots centers.

The programme is designed to support Football associations in delivering grassroots and small-sided football events to boost the participation of young girls and promote existing competitions and programmes. This initiative also provides a unique platform for associations to encourage participation in women’s football at a grassroots level, whilst promoting the game and activities that the association has in place.
