This Sunday, March 28 is the day set for Cricket West Indies (CWI) to hold its 22nd Annual General Meeting in respect of the financial year ended September 30, 2020. Due to the continuing travel-related effects of the COVID-19 pandemic the meeting will again take place virtually via video conference, as was done in a COVID-19 delayed meeting last year.
It is also the day when incumbent CWI President Ricky Skerritt, and Vice President Dr. Kishore Shallow, will face challenges from Anand Sanasie of the Guyana Cricket Board and Calvin Hope of the Barbados Cricket Association, respectively, for the leadership of the organization over the next two-year term.
CWI President Ricky Skerritt said:
“All arrangements are in place for a productive Annual General Meeting. This is not the first time that CWI is hosting a virtual AGM but it will be the first time that our leadership elections will take place virtually. We have everything in place to ensure a proper and constructive meeting.”
Shareholder members are slated to receive reports from the Cricket, Commercial and Finance Committees and for the first time, audited financial statements which will be consolidated to reflect CWI’s acquisition of and interest in the Coolidge Cricket Ground.
A copy of the 2019/20 audited financial statements and the Annual Report will be made available to all stakeholders via CWI’s website – http://www.windiescricket.com – from Monday, March 29.
