Annual General Meeting

Members are advised that the 2026 AGM will be held on Wednesday 23 September 2026, commencing at 6.00pm in the Wally Edwards Function Centre, John Inverarity Stand, WACA Ground. A formal notice of meeting including agenda will be issued to Members in late August 2026.

Member Elected Director

The Board plays a vital role in overseeing the strategic vision of WA Cricket — from completing the redevelopment of the WACA Ground and strengthening our financial sustainability, to growing the game across all WA communities and ensuring excellence in performance and governance.

By electing Directors with appropriate attributes, Members will help to ensure the Board is best equipped to lead with wisdom, integrity, foresight and inclusivity.

One Member Elected Director may be elected at the 2026 AGM.

The Board seeks nominations from Members who are able to demonstrate:

• Relevant skills and experience in governance, finance, law, commercial development, strategy or community leadership.
• A clear commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, helping the Board better reflect our Membership and the communities we serve.
• Balanced representation, including increased cultural and gender diversity, to reflect the future of our game.
• A deep passion for cricket and a strong understanding of WA Cricket’s strategic direction.

In accordance with paragraph 5.10(c)(i) of the Constitution, nominees must provide a summary of background career and personal information as to their skills, experience and attributes.

Skills Matrix

The Board maintains a skills matrix to help ensure it has the necessary skills, experience and attributes to oversee WA Cricket and its strategic direction.

The skills matrix incorporates a wide range of professional director and other skills. Currently the most sought-after skills, experience and attributes identified by the skills matrix are:

• Political Networks and Government Relations.
• Business Networks.
• Finance

The Director Nomination Form provides further details on the WACA Board skills matrix and the current most sought after skills, experience and attributes.

Diversity

The Board encourages Members who bring a strong mix of governance, commercial and strategic-thinking skills, along with a commitment to diversity and inclusion to nominate. The Board believes that nominees who reflect the changing face of our game — across gender, culture and community — and who share our vision for WA Cricket’s future, are best placed to support the organisation’s continued growth and success.

Increased diversity will enrich perspective, improve corporate performance and improve the probability of achieving WA Cricket’s strategic objectives.
