In September 2014, the West Indies Players’ Association introduced the Player Development & Welfare Programme. Since then, WIPA has conducted several seminars with players on a wide range of issues, including Anti-Corruption and Match-Fixing. We have further conducted joint seminars with Cricket West Indies (CWI) and have partnered with the Federation of International Cricketers’ Associations (FICA) to have such information accessible at any time via an online platform.

WIPA will continue to educate cricketers about pertinent issues that contribute to their personal and professional development and help to safeguard the sustainability and integrity of the sport.

We take this opportunity to again urge all West Indian cricketers to play their part in protecting the sanctity of the sport we all love.
