"We have identified grassroots development as a key priority area, recognising it as the foundation for long-term growth and success in both sectors. To this end, the ministry has, upon its inception in November 2024, set its sights on ensuring the return of school sport and arts as an inextricable component of grassroots development. From the onset, MoSA have always known and appreciated unions as critical stakeholders and custodians of teachers rights. It is for this reason that we engaged them in earnest on the matter of school sport at the beginning of 2025."

We are addressing all the problems and I hope once we meet with the associations, they will understand the vision that we have for our sport."

"I spoke to them. We had to wait for the event (World Relays) to pass. It was not about payments, but more to do with their welfare. They are concerned that they are not getting the attention they deserve when it comes to preparations. Payments also come late. We promised that we are going to improve our communication."
