• CSA reintroduces Proteas convenor selector role

    CSA has appointed Patrick Moroney as the Proteas’ new convenor selector.

    The role has not been occupied since Victor Mpitsang’s exit in 2023.

    Moroney’s career spans a wide range of roles, from serving as director of sport and marketing at high-school level to holding various selector positions, including with the youth men talent identification programme and as the Central Gauteng Lions convenor of selectors.

    He has honed his skills as a selector since 2001 and has previously served as convenor of selectors for the SA National Academy, SA Emerging and SA U19 teams.

    Moroney will report to Enoch Nkwe, director of national teams and high performance, and work closely with Proteas head coach Shukri Conrad.

    Based at the Centre of Excellence in Pretoria, he will formally take up his role on 1 August.

    “CSA is extremely proud to welcome Patrick into this pivotal role as convenor selector for the Proteas men’s team,” said Nkwe.

    “His deep understanding of the game, combined with decades of experience in talent identification and selection across various levels, makes him the ideal person for the job.

    “We are thrilled to welcome Patrick on board and look forward to working closely with him, as well as witnessing the positive impact he will undoubtedly make.”
