Diphetogo "Dipsy" Selolwane (born January 27, 1978 in Gaborone, Botswana) is a Botswana footballer player, who has played as a forward in Major League Soccer.

He first played for Gaborone United in Botswana's Premier League. After playing college soccer at St. Louis University and being named first-team All-American in 2001, Selolwane was drafted 36th overall in the 2002 MLS Superdraft by the Chicago Fire. Selolwane was traded to Real Salt Lake after the 2004 MLS season but failed to make an impact and was released during the 2005 season. In four years of limited action in MLS, he scored three goals. He then came to Botswana and left again to join Santos in the South African Premier Soccer League. He has now moved on to another PSL club, Jomo Cosmos, after having a very disappointing 2006/2007 season. He signed with Ezenkosi for the 2007/2008 season. He however made only two appearances for Jomo Cosmos and joined Ajax Cape Town in early 2008.

Selolwane is a significant player for the Botswana national football team.
