About the Jack Cheetham Award:
The Jack Cheetham Memorial Award was initiated by Murray & Roberts 34 years ago, in conjunction
with the Johannesburg Sportsman’s Club and in recognition of the special qualities of Jack
Cheetham, a former director of the company and the inspirational captain of the South African
cricket team in the 1950s who was able to instil in young people the belief that they could win.
The awards are now undertaken in partnership with the South African Sports Confederation and
Olympic Committee (SASCOC). The award targets sports development projects, focusing on
individuals or teams that have the potential to be champions.
