North West Cricket have appointed Ismail Minty acting chief executive officer with immediate effect.
Minty’s appointment follows last month’s resignation of former CEO HP Prinsloo.
“Minty will move from his role as the NWC cricket services manager to lead the organisation and ensure that the game of cricket in the province survives the economic, governance and other challenges faced by NWC,” read a statement from North West Cricket.
“Minty has been involved with the organisation for the past 20 years. From coaching the various age groups to the administration, Minty’s passion for the game has echoed through the various portfolios.
“He was the general manager of NW Rural Cricket, and further moved to the transformation and stakeholder management role. In 2019 he was appointed as the organisation’s cricket service manager.
“Minty holds an MBA in business management and has recently attended a managers’ course at Wits Business School.”
What Minty said
“I have been in the cricket system for a long time, and I am grateful for the confidence that NWC has shown me to lead the team for the duration of the season 2022-23,” said Minty.
“It is an honour and a privilege to be given the opportunity lead the province’s cricket fraternity in these difficult circumstances and I look forward to making a difference in my new role.”
