EASTERN CAPE NEWS - The Eastern Cape has lost another dedicated cricket ambassador and official.
Luxolo (Lux) Qoboshiyana, who passed away on Friday 26 March after a short illness, started his cricketing career as a player and then moved on to grow the game in the Eastern Cape.
He played provincial cricket for Border (non-racial) until unity.
He was involved in the 1991 unity talks between the South African Cricket Union (SACU) and the South African Cricket Board (SACB).
After that he served as Convener of Selectors for Border for two seasons and was acting Convener of Selectors for Warriors for two seasons.
He was also an independent national selector for Cricket South Africa.
"The thoughts of the board of Eastern Cape Cricket and those of all our players and officials are with his family. He was a passionate supporter of the game and will be sorely missed," said the acting chairman of Cricket Eastern Cape (Warriors), Donovan May.
