JCA Decision Overturned

Wed, Feb 18, '15

The decision by the board of directors of the Jamaica Cricket Association (JCA) to support Barbadian Joel Garner and not Jamaican Whycliffe 'Dave' Cameron for the presidency of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) has been overturned.

The directive was changed via a conscience vote of 67 to 22 by members of the JCA during its annual general meeting at The Jamaica Pegasus hotel yesterday.

The vote follows an original draft resolution proposing the overturn was not carried due to it not satisfying the association's constitution.

The constitution states that for a resolution to be passed, it must first be tabled at least 21 days in advance of the annual general meeting.

The resolution, led by St James Cricket Association president, Cecil Fletcher, was submitted nine days short of the requirement.
