The other clubs that missed the deadline in the South Zone are Gatalamotho and Blue Angels. In the North, only three teams have managed to register for the eliminations set for the weekend. In 2019, Vikings were also disqualified for missing the deadline. Police chairperson, Diketso Gaborone told that he only realised that he missed the deadline after making payment, only to be told that it is late. \u201c<\/p>\n

We tried to push our luck but unfortunately other team managers were against the idea. This is too bad,\u201d he said. Botswana Softball Association spokesperson, Kelly Monyake confirmed that the deadline for registration was Wednesday. When pushed further, Monyake explained that unfortunately at the moment nothing official could be confirmed.<\/p>\n
