Hockey | SA Hockey Thanks Interim CEO Shaune Baatjies for Dedicated Service

The South African Hockey Association extends its heartfelt gratitude to Shaune Baatjies, who has officially completed her tenure as Interim Chief Executive Officer of SA Hockey.

Shaune stepped into the role at a pivotal time, following the departure of former CEO Marissa Langeni. In her leadership period, she oversaw the smooth running of the organization during two historic milestones: the hosting of the FIH Nations Cup and the first-ever FIH Indoor Hockey World Cup to take place on African soil.

Her commitment, steady guidance, and hard work ensured that these landmark events not only strengthened SA Hockey’s reputation internationally but also left a legacy for the sport locally.

The South African Hockey Association acknowledges with appreciation the leadership and service of Shaune Baatjies and looks forward to building on the foundation laid during her time as CEO.

South African Hockey will announce the new CEO on Monday 1 September via all official channels.
