CONSOLATION: Police received a trophy
Orapa basketball courts were busy with activity last weekend as basketball giants battled it out in an annual tournament that for the first time saw sponsors, Mercantile Legal and Insurance Brokers coming to the party. Although the tournament has been in existence for the past four years, it was the first time it attracted a sponsor. According to one of the organisers of the tournament, Oscar Gobusamang the sponsors showed social responsibility and care of growth of basketball in Botswana.
In the past we used the money we got from registrations by the teams to buy a trophy for the winners, this year we had sponsors who provided the trophy for first place winners, prize monies for outstanding performers and water for the teams, Gobusamang said. He went on to thank the sponsors for their contributions and the teams for the participation. The victors of the day were Police who walloped the Falcons 73 to 50 in an adrenalin rushing final encounter. Police walked away with a trophy.
There were also prizes won during the tournament. Most valuable player, who walked away with P300, Slam dunk winner who scooped P300 and Three point competition winner got P300. Gobusamang said he was hopeful that this event gets more sponsors who will help basketball in Botswana gain more popularity. He also encouraged teams to register and participate in large numbers.
