CHASE Fund chief executive officer, Wilford 'Billy' Heaven, was elected president of the Jamaica Cricket Association (JCA) in a landslide victory over outgoing vice-president Milton Henry at the Jamaica Conference Centre in downtown Kingston yesterday.
Heaven, who will replace outgoing president Lyndel 'Muddy' Wright, polled 75 votes to Henry's 21.
In his campaign, the CHASE CEO kept the focus on changing the fortune of Jamaica's cricket via inspired leadership, strengthening of governing structures, and on increasing the association's revenue base. He said he was delighted with the win.
"I think what transpired was that the delegates recognised that there needed to be change if the sport is to move forward, and that is why they elected me," said Heaven.
"I am grateful, and I look forward to working with my team and all those who want to see cricket grow and develop.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

Billy is a good man for the job. He has been tried and proven. There should also be a place for Milton Henry who should have been on the same slate. However only one can win. I hope Milton will be given some task so he remains with cricket administration.
With Billy and his team, so much is expected. Let us give him full support as he takes on this huge task of changing the fortunes of cricket in Jamaica and indeed the Caribbean.
