Hong Kong Cricket Association

May 8, 2008

The Chairman of Hong Kong Cricket Association (HKCA), Mr Clive Howard, has resigned from his position with immediate effect.

In his letter of resignation Mr Howard cited family and work commitments for his decision.

Mr Terry Smith, the President of the Hong Kong Cricket Association acknowledged his contribution to Hong Kong cricket during the three years of his chairmanship.

"During his time as Chairman cricket developed significantly, with the introduction of the "Challenge League" for players not able to find places in teams competing in the regular Saturday and Sunday League competitions run by the HKCA and the setting up of a women's league competition.

"He also played a significant part in developing the International Cricket Sixes into an event of true international stature.

"Given the scale of the activities now being undertaken by the Association, we are now considering the appointment of a Chief Executive Officer to support the Chairman and executive committee and implement all aspects of association policy," Mr Smith concluded.

A new Chairman will be appointed at the AGM of the Hong Kong Cricket Association, to be held on 23rd May 2008.
