𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐎𝐤𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐨 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬 -Shakawe Kickoff

Since 2022, I have observed the remarkable growth of the Shakawe Stream League teams.

Their style of play, marketing strategies, and overall demeanor demonstrate that they outgrew Division 1 long before it was officially introduced by the Botswana Football Association (BFA).

Okavango teams have indeed made Division 1 fashionable, underscoring the significance of football in the region.

𝑳𝒆𝒕’𝒔 𝒆𝒙𝒂𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒇𝒊𝒈𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒔:

𝟭. 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗡𝗲𝘁 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵: 𝗣𝟭𝟲,𝟳𝟱𝟬.𝟬𝟬

This amount merely covers registration and preparation before kickoff only.

𝑩𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒅𝒐𝒘𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝑬𝒙𝒑𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒆𝒔:

𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿 𝗔𝗰𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝗣𝟳,𝟱𝟬𝟬- This amount represents the purchase of three players at P2,500 each, accounting for 45% of the budget. Teams invest in talent due to the absence of academies.

𝗥𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁: 𝗣𝟱,𝟴𝟬𝟬 -This reflects the “pay-to-play” model that teams must adhere to before the game begins.

𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁, 𝗙𝗼𝗼𝗱, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗞𝗶𝘁 𝗖𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴: 𝗣𝟯,𝟰𝟱𝟬-These are essential survival costs without food, football cannot thrive.

𝑨 𝑹𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝑪𝒉𝒆𝒄𝒌 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑭𝒂𝒏𝒔:

While P16,000 may seem trivial for BFA and Okavango Region Football Association (OKRFA).

For teams in Okavango without sponsors, this amount represents a significant financial burden borne by management from their own resources.

Furthermore, this figure pertains only to Day 1 expenses and does not include match fees, referee payments, medical expenses, or travel to Kasane and Ghanzi.

It is no surprise that many teams struggle and even collapse mid season.

If we aspire for Okavango and Stream teams to compete with those benefiting from structured support and dividends.

We must recognize that these teams often cannot afford even the basic necessity of scouting opponents.

After investing over P16,000, losing is simply not an option.

As the saying goes, “once beaten, twice shy,” Machiki.

Thus, I have this question to the OKRFA and BFA. Given this breakdown, is it still appropriate to label the requests from teams for structure and dividends as “begging,” or is it a matter of survival?

Okavango teams are not seeking handouts they are demanding a fair share of the dividends they help generate.

It is time to respect the game and recognize their contribution.

𝐃𝐀𝐘 𝟑 𝐎𝐅 𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐍 𝐁𝐋𝐎𝐂𝐊 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐘 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐒 𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐔𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐒 & 𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐇𝐎𝐓

Shakawe KickOff writes as a PRO football fan. When I posted on Day 2 that the playoffs would start on Day 3, people didn’t understand why? So here is why:

As you know, those teams didn’t know each other well in terms of planning and play, and they weren’t given time to watch each team play.

That made it worse. So on Day 3, that was City Kings vs Red Stars brother region reps and homies. The game alone was a masterpiece. Matter of fact, it was art in motion.

In the background you could hear people saying "Team tse ne di ira Kabomo" there I knew Okavango flavour, cream de la crème, was taking place.

The moment that caught us was when the referee was so drawn into watching the game that he forgot he was supposed to be officiating it.

Despite the results brought in by both teams, that was a kasi football display for the books.

Once beaten, twice shy, Machiki. Danko is thank you for the rep bo Doko.

Mohembo United Queries Gate Taking Payout After Deciding Games in Shakawe

Mohembo United Football Club has written to the Okavango Regional Football Association asking for a review of gate taking funds paid after the region’s deciding games last month.

In a letter dated 03/06/2026 to the OKRFA Chairperson, Team President said Mohembo was given P1000 on 24 May 2026 “for transport and feeding”.

The club argues this is unfair given their contribution to ticket sales and overall gate takings during the deciding games held in Shakawe on 23rd-24th May 2026.

According to the letter, OKRFA failed to inform teams beforehand how gate money would be shared.

Mohembo says they were only given tickets to sell with an understanding that teams and the region would meet after the games to agree on a sharing formula.

“To our dismay we were given P1000 and to us we thought it’s not fair at all given the fact that we contributed a lot during these deciding games in terms of the gate takings,” The President wrote.

He urged OKRFA to “reconsider what you gave our team and give them what they deserve looking at the costs we incurred and the players welfare”.-Mohembo United President

NORTHERN BLOCK PLAY OFFS - Table

1. Red Stars top with 3pts. 1-0 win, clean sheet. Early statement made. Obedient to the game plan = 3 points.

2-5. Logjam City Kings, Desert Buffalos, Mosetse FC, Sedudu SC all on 1pt. 0-0 draws across the board. Tight defense, but no one wants to risk it yet.

6. Ama Bradas bottom with 0pts. Lost 0-1. Conceded late? Need to fix that “stab from behind” problem quick.

Key takeaways:

Defense is winning: 4 out of 5 games were 0-0. No one bleeding goals yet.

Red Stars already have +1 GD. In playoffs that 1 goal could be the difference between promotion and heartbreak.

Matchday 1 Game 2 is huge: If Red Stars win again they pull 6pts clear. The 0-0 teams need to start taking risks or they’ll all stay stuck on draws.
