After the launching of Kuwait Cricket Association (KCA) in the year 1996 under the able leadership of HE. Sheikh Dhari Fahd Al Ahmed Al Sabah, cricket in Kuwait has reached great heights. The most remarkable achievement was the elevation of Kuwait as an Associate member of International Cricket Council (ICC) in 2005.
In order to streamline and cater the growth of cricket in Kuwait, both on domestic as well as at International levels, on behalf of HE Sheikh Dhari Fahd Al Ahmed Al-Sabah, Haider Farman, General Secretary of KCA announced the restructuring of the Administration of Cricket in Kuwait which will now be known as KUWAIT CRICKET instead of Kuwait Cricket Association (KCA). The newly elected body is affiliated to Kuwait Olympic Committee and Public Authority for Youth and Sports. Moreover, Kuwait Cricket will be an associate member of the International Cricket Council (ICC) and a full member of Asian Cricket Council (ACC) and our status with both the ICC and ACC will be unaffected by this change.
The recent change of name is a move by HE Sheikh Dhari Fahd Al Ahmed Al-Sabah whose intention is to ensure the best governance of the game. As with KCA before, Kuwait Cricket will comprise an Executive Board, supported by an Executive Council.
The Executive Board will be responsible for maintaining an overview of the administration of cricket in Kuwait, responsible for all issues of policy and international affairs. The Board members will comprise:
