Botswana Sports Volunteer Movement

The Movement was formed in 2000 and launched in April 2001 to compliment the efforts Botswana National Sports Commission achieve the objectives of vision 2012 and 2016 by fostering the spirit of volunteerism in the different codes. This was borne out of the realization that the pathway to promote sport development, especially in cases where there is inadequate financial resources to engage fulltime personnel, is to build a pool of skilled volunteer coaches, referees/umpires, judges, and administrators. This is done through training/upskilling volunteers on an ongoing basis.

The Movement encourages individuals and the community at large to participate in sport, and also seeks to recognize and appreciate the efforts of those involved.
