EZULWINI – Former sprint sensation Sibusiso “Swazi Bolt” Matsenjwa will continue leading the voices of the kingdom’s sportsmen and women after being re-elected as Chairperson of the Eswatini Olympic and Commonwealth Games Association (EOCGA) Athletes’ Commission.

The elections, which usher in a new executive to serve from 2025 to 2029, also saw seasoned runner Phumlile Ndzinisa secure another term as Vice-Chairperson.

Other members of the newly elected team are Thabiso Dlamini, Simanga Dlamini, Robyn Young, Saneliso Masuku, and Muzi Shabangu.

Matsenjwa, who retired from competitive athletics in 2022, remains a prominent figure in Eswatini sport, now steering athlete representation off the track.
