USACA debt surpasses $4.3 million - chairman - 04-07-2016
The USA Cricket Association's federal return filings for the tax year 2014 show a 5% increase in the amount of organisational debt, amounting to a total of $4,319,414. The latest figure was recently made public by USACA ahead of the board's annual general meeting scheduled for April 9 at the Central Broward Regional Park in Lauderhill, Florida.
The year 2014 saw significant problems for USACA on and off the field, with chief executive Darren Beazley resigning in the first quarter of the year, a move that preceded the collapse of an agreement to host the USACA National Championship in Indianapolis, which included arrangements to have matches televised on ESPN digital platforms. Under increasing financial duress, USACA later had to cancel a preparation camp to Jamaica ahead of the team's participation in WCL Division Three in Malaysia, where they were relegated after a fifth-place finish.
The amount of funding USACA received from the ICC in 2014 went down 23%, from $366,762 in 2013 to $283,928. According to the tax return information, four USACA board members - including president Gladstone Dainty and former treasurer John Thickett - entered a claim on the tax return of having loaned USACA a combined total of more than $32,300 for "operational expenses" to help cover the difference, though the returns state there were no written agreements submitted for the loans by the board members.

Eldine Baptiste and West Indies U-19 coach Graeme West have been brought in to serve as the lead talent evaluators at the forthcoming US scouting combines.
Quote: "I am thoroughly looking forward to working with Mike Young as well as the ICC Americas and local cricket community on this project" Baptiste said. "It is a great opportunity for the players across the USA and extremely exciting for the development of the game."
Baptiste has prior experience working in an Associate cricket setup. Baptiste coached Kenya from September 2009 to April 2011, but stepped down shortly after Kenya's win-less performance at the 2011 World Cup in India.
The candidates at each city-based combine will also be put through a series of skills, fitness and agility tests conducted by BAM (Basic Athletic Measurement) Testing. BAM conducts skills and agility tests at the annual NBA Draft Rookie Combine. Headquartered in Seattle, BAM was founded in 2008 by former Dallas Mavericks head strength and conditioning coach Brett Brungardt.
