Giants Tigresses have called for reforms so as to ensure smooth running of the Rainbow Paints Blantyre and Districts Netball League.<\/p>\n
Tigresses Coach, Peace Chawinga-Kaluwa, was reacting to incidents which happened this season, with the team, at some point, getting suspended from playing games due to a transfer wrangle surrounding shooter Lauren Ngwira.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere were some disciplinary issues that threatened to spoil the league. Justice was not administered fairy in a sense that in some cases, judgements were instant whereas other cases took time to be settled,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
The former Malawi coach and skipper also felt that fixture congestion was another problem.<\/p>\n
\u201cFirst, the fixture ought to be released in advance so as to enable teams to prepare accordingly. It raises eyebrows when the fixture is withheld or released in bits-and-pieces. This applies elsewhere when the Queens go for an international tournament. They are well aware of opponents they will meet and on which day.<\/p>\n
\u201cSecond, the fixture pile-up is unhealthy for players. I mean playing three games each week is bad for players\u2019 body condition, so we need to have a good environment to safeguard the players\u2019 health,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Blantyre and Districts Netball Committee General Secretary, Annie Hanjahanja, said Tigresses\u2019 concerns can be appreciated if presented formally to the league.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf they have those concerns, let them bring them forward,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
