S M Jiffrey Abdeen, Kandy Sports Correspondent

Tilina Tennakoon and Janaka Pathirana were re-elected as President and General Secretary respectively at the Annual General Meeting of the Central Province Cricket Association held at the Central Region Office of the Sri Lanka Cricket, Asgiriya Stadium, Kandy.

Janaka Pathirana after his election as General Secretary said that the Central Province Cricket Association comprises the District Associations of Kandy, Kegalle and Nuwara Eliya and the respective District Associations should hold their Annual General Meetings on the due dates. He said that there is no reason why the District Associations should not hold their Annual election of office bearers on time if they had carried out their functions properly and if the minutes of the previous AGM.

The Annual Report and the Accounts are in order and ready. He also noted with regret that one of the District Cricket Associations had last held the Annual General Meeting in August, 2008 and also had not conducted its Annual tournaments thus depriving the member clubs of any competitive cricket or allowing them the opportunity of electing officials of their choice.
