Democratisation This is the process through which human assets of the organisation are unlocked by allowing all legitimate stakeholders to be heard, encouraging local ownership and ensuring accountability and participation in all of its structures. Redress and CSA has a moral duty to ensure that cricket grows and Representivity flourishes amongst the disadvantaged who come from black African communities. This involves a commitment to the development of potential amongst African people at all levels of the game. This programme reaffirms its mission to bring cricket to all the people of South Africa and to facilitate a culture of nonracialism. Constitution The Constitution of CSA should be a unifying force, reflecting the sentiments of a modern organisation, promoting sound governance, facilitating strategic guidance, encapsulating their executive powers and accountabilities and protecting codes of conduct. Competitiveness To ensure the sustainability of cricket in South Africa through and Revenue its ability to compete effectively in the entertainment and sport industry and to maintain and grow its market share. Development This programme must assist in establishing cricket as a people’s game which integrates all communities into cricket activities, thereby contributing to the shaping of a future cricket culture. Closing the Gap To bridge the existing gaps between schools cricket, club cricket, provincial cricket and international cricket in order to minimise loss of human potential and optimise the return on cricket, human and financial investments. Funding and To assist in supporting a financially and operationally viable distribution and stable affiliate/provincial base. This will be achieved by establishing a fair, equitable policy for the distribution of funds that is accepted and supported by affiliates and rewards affiliates for their contribution to cricket. Recording the full To acknowledge, record and respect black cricket during history of South the past century in order to establish the rich and African cricket comprehensive history of South African cricket, recognising diversity as a source of strength. Accountability To establish a mechanism for the monitoring and and implementation of the Transformation Charter and establish monitoring joint accountability among CSA and its affiliates during this process. 5 CSA President’s Report INTRODUCTION “If you want change, I preface my report with this quote from one of the world’s be the change you pre-eminent leaders who was the Chris Nenzani epitome of humility and service. want to see in the President Our organisation has gone through world.” a period of change over the last couple of years. This has been a journey of discovery and anguish for Cricket South Africa, largely because we went through this change out of necessity and coercion. Did we – Mahatma Ghandi believe in the change that we had to embrace? Were we forced by an unprecedented national desire for CSA to right the wrongs of the past whilst we did not actually believe in the inevitable? Any organisation that goes through what CSA went through ought to take stock and commit itself to embrace a new culture and take a stand against the tendencies that brought it into disrepute in the past. Our commitment to change should be grounded in our desire to see the organic transformation and re-birth of our organisation. Our conduct at all times must be directed to advancing the interests of Cricket South Africa and the game of cricket in general. THE GOVERNANCE COMPONENT AT CSA The CSA AGM in February 2013 ushered in a new dispensation in the history of cricket in this country and sport in general. We saw the emergence of a new governance model for cricket after a year-long restructuring process. During the restructuring phase we were motivated by the commitment we had made to the South African public in the wake of the Nicholson Enquiry.

  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • The Lion and the Springbok
    The Lion and the Springbok The Lion and the Springbok presents a unique account of the dynamics and divergences of the ‘uneasy special relationship’ between Britain and South Africa. From the bruising experience of the South African War (1899–1902) to South Africa’s withdrawal from the Commonwealth in 1961, the authors chart this relationship in all its political, economic, cultural, and geostrategic aspects. All the major disputes are discussed, including the struggle for the High Commission Territories, the crisis over Seretse Khama’s marriage, and the transfer of the Simon’s Town naval base. These issues trace, for the most part, a continuing deterioration in relations, as Afrikaner nationalist identity hardened and South African politics slid into the extremes of apartheid. The perceptions each side had of the other after 1948 are examined through representations in the media, and an epilogue considers the reasons for the return of the ‘new South Africa’ to the Commonwealth in 1994. ronald hyam is Emeritus Reader in British Imperial History, University of Cambridge, and a Fellow and former President of Magdalene College. peter henshaw is a Research Professor in History at the University of Western Ontario.

A time when full contact sport no longer holds centre stage. It is a passage of time when the art of sport is appreciated over the physicality of competition. Today, latent skills and blossoming talent has a place amongst our youth and the generations to come. It is now the subtle brilliance of deftness, the art of touch, mastery of stroke and pure strategic guile that has turned cricket into the sport of the future. Today cricket is the stage for mental agility and peak physical condition. It is purity of both mind and spirit that produces champions. The re-invention of cricket globally has rejuvenated a desire to master the ultimate game. A sense of camaraderie pursued by both men and women alike. It’s now a passion for gamesmanship, integrity, honesty and fair play. It is a game that can be embraced and played or supported by everyone. We can’t undo the past, but we can shape the future. We do what we do today in cricket, for what will happen TOMORROW.

  • Sport Consumption Patterns in the Eastern Cape:Cricket
    SPORT CONSUMPTION PATTERNS IN THE EASTERN CAPE: CRICKET SPECTATORS AS SPORTING UNIVORES OR OMNIVORES Kelcey Brock* Gavin Fraser# Rhodes University Rhodes University Ferdi Botha+ Rhodes University Received: March 2016 Accepted: July 2016 Abstract Since its inception, consumption behaviour theory has developed to account for the important social aspects that underpin or at least to some extent explain consumer behaviour. Empirical studies on consumption behaviour of cultural activities, entertainment and sport have used Bourdieu’s (1984) omnivore/univore theory to investigate consumption of leisure activities. The aim of this study is to investigate whether South African cricket spectators are sporting omnivores or univores. The study was conducted among cricket spectators in the Eastern Cape at four limited overs cricket matches in the 2012/2013 cricket season. The results indicate that consumption behaviour of sport predominantly differs on the grounds of education and race. This suggests that there are aspects of social connotations underpinning sports consumption behaviour within South Africa. Keywords Consumption; sport; univores; omnivores; social connotations _______________________________ *Ms K Brock is a lecturer in the Department of Economics and Economic History, Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa. #Prof G Fraser is professor in the Department of Economics and Economic History, Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa. +Mr F Botha is a senior lecturer in the Department of Economics and Economic History, Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa.

The decline had perhaps begun as early as the 1999 World Cup final, and peaked during the 2003 World Cup tournament and it became more obvious in the aftermath of the twin series defeats against India at home in early 2004. The services of Bob Woolmer as coach were acquired by the Pakistan Cricket Board in an effort to ensure that the team came up with improved performance and did justice with the loads of talent. The move has paid dividends.
