What an inspiring day in Francistown!

On 27 June 2026, 35 dedicated coaches gathered at Aerodrome Primary School for a Special Olympics Botswana Coaches Training, generously supported by Lions Clubs International.

A heartfelt thank you to the outstanding Fire Mogotsi for leading an engaging and empowering training session. We were also privileged to have Athlete Leader Brightfiled Shadi serve as co-facilitator, bringing the invaluable voice and lived experience of Special Olympics athletes to the training.

The session was further honored by the presence of Special Olympics Botswana Board Member and Legal Advisor Advocate Deuce Seetapele and National Director Sharon Reakae, whose commitment continues to strengthen inclusive sport in Botswana.

Together, we are building the capacity of coaches, empowering athlete leaders, and creating more opportunities for people with intellectual disabilities to thrive through sport.

Today, Special Olympics Botswana held an Extraordinary General Meeting to review and amend our draft Constitution which is a historic milestone for our organization.
Remarkably, our Constitution had not undergone any amendments since 1987. Nearly four decades later, our members came together to carefully review, discuss, and update this important governing document to ensure it reflects the realities, opportunities, and expectations of our time while positioning Special Olympics Botswana for a stronger future.
We extend our sincere gratitude to Advocate Deuce Seetapele for expertly facilitating this process and guiding members through the constitutional review. We also thank the Special Olympics Botswana Board and our valued members for their commitment, thoughtful contributions, and dedication to strengthening our organization.
Today was not just about amending a Constitution; it was about safeguarding the future of Special Olympics Botswana and ensuring that we continue to serve athletes with intellectual disabilities with excellence, integrity, and purpose.
Together, we are building a stronger foundation for the next generation.
