Botswana Revives National Paralympic Games After Decade-Long Hiatus
A Return to the Sporting Stage
Botswana’s National Paralympic Games are making a highly anticipated comeback, almost ten years since the last event. The Paralympic Association of Botswana (PASSOBO) is orchestrating this revival, with the games scheduled to take place in Jwaneng from December 3rd to 5th.
Unearthing Future Talent
This renewed focus on Paralympic sports goes beyond competition. A primary objective of the Games is to identify and nurture new talent within the para-sport community. Organizers hope to discover athletes who can advance to national and international representation, contributing to Botswana’s sporting legacy.
Collaborative Support Drives the Initiative
The successful return of the National Paralympic Games is a testament to strong collaborative efforts. Significant backing comes from Debswana, a key national industry player. The government and local authorities are also providing crucial support, highlighting a collective commitment to inclusivity and sports development. This multi-faceted support system is vital for ensuring the event’s success and its long-term impact on para-athletes across the nation.
