Border Cricket
Cricket South Africa has exercised its “step-in-rights”, appointing administrators to manage the affairs at Border Cricket, and Northern Cape Cricket Union.
In a statement on Wednesday, CSA said this decision follows challenges in meeting obligations outlined in their regulations.
These included the failure to timeously submit unqualified audited financial statements and concerns around the general lack of adherence to standard governance practices.
“As a result, the Boards of Border and NCC will be temporarily dissolved, with CSA-appointed administrators stepping in to manage the affairs of the unions for the duration of this step-in period,”, CSA said.
Former cricket administrator, Greg Fredericks, who hails from East London, and Jesse Chellan, were appointed as administrators for Border and Northern Cape respectively with immediate effect.
"The decision was made after thoughtful consideration by the CSA Board and after extensive engagements with both Unions.
We believe this step-in will help Border and NCC improve their operational, financial, and governance structures, ultimately strengthening their standing as CSA members moving forward,” said Cricket South Africa CEO, Pholetsi Moseki.
