CSA Puts Measures In Place To Strengthen Governance At Border And Northern Cape Cricket Unions:

JOHANNESBURG: Cricket South Africa (CSA) has today shared its decision to exercise its step-in rights under its Memorandum of Incorporation (MoI) regarding governance matters at Border Cricket (Border) and Northern Cape Cricket Union (NCC).

This decision follows challenges in meeting obligations outlined in CSA Regulations, including 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.

Experienced former Cricket Administrators Greg Fredericks and Jesse Chellan were appointed as Administrators. Fredericks is assigned to Border while Chellan is assigned to NCC. Their appointments are effective immediately.

CSA CEO Pholetsi Moseki noted:

“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.”

Constitution Hill: From Injustice to Justice

Constitution Hill is a living museum located on the ridge between Braamfontein and Hillbrow. It is a site of extreme contrasts, housing both the notorious Old Fort prison complex—where some of the most horrific human rights abuses of the 19th and 20th centuries occurred—and the modern South African Constitutional Court, the highest guardian of the country’s democracy. This site is often referred to as the “Robben Island of Johannesburg” because it incarcerated nearly every major figure in the liberation struggle, including Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi, Joe Slovo, Albertina Sisulu, and Winnie Madikizela-Mandela. However, its history is far older than the anti-Apartheid struggle; it was originally built in 1893 as a prison by the Boer Republic and later converted into a military fort to defend the city against the British during the South African War.
