Good afternoon members and I hope all of you had a great weekend.
As you are well aware on the 23rd day of October 2016 we played the T20 quarter final and lost out to Challengers in a nail biting encounter. The T20 finals were played yesterday thus marking the end of the 2016 Cricket Season.
The 50 Over league too climaxed in the month of July though not in the fashion that everyone would have hoped for when appeals and cross appeals were filed by various clubs and which actions inevitably meant the men's team finished in 2nd position one point behind Challengers.
On a positive note the girl's team completed their league as champions having lost only one game all season. Congratulations to the team and management

This is to thank all of you for your generous unconditional support, monetary and otherwise which has enabled us stroll through a challenging 2016. We still have a number of obligations to clear and I am calling upon all members with balances to kindly clear the same. Attached is the table for your perusal and records.

A tour to nairobi is in the offing and the cost for the same is Ug.Shs.850,000 per member intending to travel. The proposed date for departure is the 15th of December 2016 however I am requesting members to confirm their availability to enable us plan and further confirm to our hosts.

regards and a blessed week to you all.

Nicholas

@Dennis, thank you for your
response however the table does reflect the
contribution
received to date. Please note that there are two
columns,
one for the annual subscription and contribution to
the
easter tour (by a select kenyan team to Uganda) and
december

tradition
the annual contribution is a priority however
contributions
to the tours are highly welcome though not mandatory.
All
members are eligible to participate in the tour.
Attached is the revised table for the
contributions to date and for all that have contacted

   Good morning
members,

Please refer to the above. The
season is far from over and we still have
expenses to cater
for as a club.
I am kindly calling upon

all members with outstanding balances to clear the
same
to
enable the management to effectively run
the club affairs.

Your
contributions are much appreciated
and I
wait for your prompt responses.
A
blessed week to you all

Dear John Mpande,

I 'am glad that you are taking these

issues seriously. I hope all concerned & the
cricket
fans appreciate, that this is the only way we
can develop
our game to international
standards.

Please imagine if we have a set of foreign

players in our league, in the coming years and,
these
kind
of decisions and attitudes are still
deep entrenched?, what
value does the
"board or trustees" add to cricket,
if they can't be appealed to?, does that
mean we seek
legal redress?,



We are always following cricket related activities
and news from a distance, so take heart that
you have
support.



   I wish you all a nice weekend.



   @THE GREAT KABUKI,

Please advise when you & the wolf(Yona) are in
Nairobi.





   Regards,



Ian
Wamara

Dear
Appeals Committee,

   I would like
to thank you for
the prompt response and
hoping we can see similar immediate

responses on similar matters ( now that a precedent
has
been
set).





However,
following your cue on
defining an appeal, I
took liberty to also look up a
definition
of natural justice to share with you here below.

From the onset, let me

clarify, I cannot deny your competence in law (and
the
"interpretation ") but can question
the
application of common sense, basic
logic and playing for the
spirit of the
game.

   The application from TBCC and Nile
CC was made in order to provide all the facts
on the subject
matter given that the
committee members are not actively
involved
in the game (rather remotely). And the appeal was
made in the spirit of the game.


However, when the committee assets

that "

The decision of the committee shall be

final" yet the decision was reached at with one
sided facts, then one naturally questions the
decision made
in this regard and the
factors behind this.









   NATURAL
JUSTICE

   What are the rules of natural
justice?




The
principles of
natural justice concern
procedural fairness and ensure a
fair
decision is reached by an objective decision maker.



Maintaining

procedural fairness protects the rights of
individuals
and
enhances public confidence in the
process.




A word used to
refer to situations where

audi alteram
partem
(the right to be heard) and nemo judex in
parte sua
(no person may judge their own
case) apply.




The principles of
natural justice were derived from the Romans
who believed
that some legal principles
were "natural" or
self-evident
and did not require a statutory basis.




These two basic
legal
safeguards govern all decisions by judges or
government officials when they take
quasi-judicial or
judicial decisions.



Three common law

rules are referred to in relation to natural justice
or
procedural fairness.





   The Hearing Rule




This
rule requires
that a person must be allowed
an adequate opportunity to
present their
case where certain interests and rights may be
adversely affected by a decision-maker.



To ensure that

these rights are respected, the deciding authority
must
give
both the opportunity to prepare and
present evidence and to
respond to
arguments presenting by the opposite side.



When conducting an
investigation in relation to a complaint it is
important
that the person being complained
against is advised of the
allegations in as
much detail as possible and given the

opportunity to reply to the allegations.





   The Bias Rule




This
second rule
states that no one ought to be
judge in his or her case.
This is the
requirement that the deciding authority must be
unbiased when according the hearing or making
the decision.




Additionally,
investigators and decision-makers must act
without bias in
all procedures connected
with the making of a decision.




A decision-maker
must be
impartial and must make a decision based on a
balanced and considered assessment of the
information and
evidence before him or her
without favouring one party over
another.




Even where no

actual bias exists, investigators and
decision-makers
should
be careful to avoid the appearance
of bias. Investigators
should ensure that
there is no conflict of interest which

would make it inappropriate for them to conduct the
investigation.





   The
Evidence Rule




The third rule is
that an administrative decision must be based
upon logical
proof or evidence material.




Investigators and
decision makers should not base their
decisions on mere
speculation or suspicion.




Rather, an

investigator or decision maker should be able to
clearly
point to the evidence on which the inference
or
determination is based.



Evidence

(arguments, allegations, documents, photos, etc..)
presented
by one party must be disclosed to
the other party, who may
then subject it to
scrutiny

   Dear
Members,





   RE:
VERDICT OF THE UCA
APPEALS COMMITTEE
REGARDING THE PETITION FILED BY TORNADO

CC





Background:







   You will recall that on 2

   nd August 2016, Tornado
CC in exercising Article XIX of the
Constitution filed an
appeal to the UCA
Appeals Committee contesting the decision

of the UCA Games Committee on the 2

   nd Round League game
between Tornado CC V and Tornado Bee CC that
had been
scheduled for Sunday 24
   th July
2016.




Decision of the Appeals
Committee



   The
Appeals Committee that
consists of Siraji
Ali, Sebina Muwanga, Abu Musuza, Tendo

Andrew and Isaac Bakayana reviewed the appeal and
their
conclusions which are contained in the
judgment dated 10

   th August 2016 are
summarized
as follows.










1.

   That they were convinced

Tornado CC were aware of the rescheduled match fixed
on
Sunday 24

   th July 2016







2.

That the game of 15

th May 2016 that
had
been treated as a rescheduled game was
actually an abandoned
game according to
Rule 13 of the UCA Playing Conditions

2016.






3.

   That the game was abandoned

within the meaning of Rule 13 and as such Tornado CC
earned
2 points under the same rule.






   On the
whole, the Appeals
Committee ruled that
Tornado CC appeal succeeds in part i.e.
the
game of 15

   th May 2016 was an
abandoned game
and therefore got two (2) points from it.









Conclusion.



   Under
Article XIX, Section 1 of
the UCA
Constitution the decision of the Appeals Committee
shall be final and therefore this brings the
matter to its
final conclusion.







For this
reason therefore, the
points table for the
Jazz Safari National League 2016 that
had
been sent out earlier shall be revised accordingly
and
circulated.





   We
would like to thank for your
patience as
this matter was being resolved.









   Regards





   Justine
Ligyalingi





   Chief
Executive Officer
