CSA has announced the appointment of Thabang Moroe as its new chief executive on Monday.

Moroe has been the acting chief executive for the past year and will take up his position with immediate effect on a three-year contract.

‘Moroe’s appointment follows a thorough and rigorous process to fill this important position,’ said CSA president Chris Nenzani. ‘I would like to express my appreciation to the subcommittee of the board as well as my colleagues who have brought this matter to a highly satisfactory conclusion.

‘Moroe has done an excellent job over the past year in taking over this position in circumstances that were far from ideal.

‘In congratulating him on his appointment, I look forward to his continuing the path set out by his predecessor of achieving our goal to be the best-run sports federation on the continent and to be among the best in the world.’
