Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>Keorapetse Setlhare is the new Confederation of Universities and Colleges Sports Association (CUCSA) vice president.<\/b><\/p>\n

Setlhare, who is the Botswana Tertiary Student Sport Association (BOTTESSA) president, was elected at the confederation\u2019s annual general meeting in Livingstone, Zambia.<\/p>\n

He was contesting for the position against Angola\u2019s Alberto Carlos, who garnered one vote while Setlhare amassed five votes.<\/p>\n

He said he would ensure that, together with his team, they raised the bar and made the CUCSA Games even more competitive.<\/p>\n

Setlhare said one of their goals was to ensure that there was mass participation from other countries in the southern region.<\/p>\n

He said countries such as Angola, eSwatini, Lesotho, Madagascar, and Namibia had not been fully participating in the games.<\/p>\n

He said it was important for the countries to be encouraged and supported by their governments to participate in the games.<\/p>\n

On luring sponsors for the CUCSA Games, he said their next competitions were in South Africa and that they might attract more sponsors since most of the multi-national companies in the region were based in South Africa.<\/p>\n

He noted that the games were held after every two years and that it was important to organise other activities such as workshops and sport conferences to prepare for the games.<\/p>\n

Setlhare also said his election was an indication that they had been doing well in good governance.<\/p>\n

\u201cOther countries have been benchmarking from us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a student from Botswana University of Agriculture and Natural Resources (BUAN), Theo Dipholo has been elected as a student representative.<\/p>\n
