🇧🇼 Family voices, stronger leadership, greater inclusion!

Special Olympics Botswana is proudly represented at the Special Olympics Africa Family Leadership Academy by Board Member and Family Representative Ms Maipelo Modisa, sibling representative Ms Thato Lucricia Selei and Africa Family Representative Ms Pelotlhomogi Rantseo.

Joining families from across the continent, they are sharing experiences, strengthening their leadership skills and building connections to advance inclusion for people with intellectual disabilities. 🤝🌍

Families and siblings bring invaluable knowledge, lived experience and commitment to our movement. Their voices help shape programmes that respond to real needs and build communities where everyone belongs.

We look forward to the ideas and lessons our representatives will bring home as we continue strengthening family engagement across Botswana. 🇧🇼✨

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.
