Tell us how you came to be working at Newlands Cricket Ground?

I am very involved with Mini Cricket

The smiles on the little ones faces because they are excited. Being exposed to CSA structures and learning something new every day

Many would argue that you have one of the most iconic work venues in South Africa, how do you go about appreciating Newlands Cricket Ground as your office?

The giant mountain as a view

Tell us something that not many people will know about you
