JOHANNESBURG: On 5 June 2025 the dispute between Cricket South Africa (CSA) and Free State Cricket Union (FSCU) was subjected to mediation.

The dispute has been resolved on the basis that in the best interest of cricket and the country, FSCU acknowledges that it will not participate in Division 1 for the 2025/2026 season. Rather than incurring further legal fees, the Union has resolved to allocate the available resources toward the development of cricket within the region.

This strategic focus aims to enhance the standard of play locally and improve team performance, thereby increasing the likelihood of future promotion back to Division 1.

CSA appreciates the professional and constructive manner in which the FSCU has engaged in the mediation process. CSA commends the Union for prioritising the best interests of the game and extends its best wishes for their continued efforts to achieve promotion back to Division 1.
