Congratulations to our Sports Technology Manager Grant van Velden for being re-appointed onto the USSA Cricket Executive Committee as their general secretary. Maties cricketer Lehan Botha accompanies him as a student representative.

"I am extremely honoured and excited to be re-elected to the USSA Cricket Executive as General Secretary for a second term. With the recent restructuring of the professional game in South Africa, student-cricket forms an even more important talent development pipeline for cricket in South Africa than ever before. I look forward to contributing to this significant talent development pipeline and seeing more student-cricketers graduate into the professional game with degrees that set them up for life after cricket," said Grant.

Maties Cricket Manager Keagan van Aarde went on to say: "I think it is aligned to what we would like to achieve as Maties Cricket in producing well-rounded individuals. I am very proud of their inclusion on the committee"​
