Absolutely correct! :D
Farai Chari, who also sports the title of Area Manager for the Mountaineers, whatever that is.

... and I must admit I did not know he had coached or discovered Kasuza. Any more info on that, samedwards?

Here's a photo I recently noticed on the Mountaineers website. I had a thought of someday (when the article would have sunk deep into the abysses of the internet) asking about the two former FC cricketers "seen" here ;) It's the Goats CEO Jon Brent and Kevin Walton who runs a construction business in Mutare and is discussing the developments of new nets at Dangamvura High.

Kevin is the first from his family to play cricket, and he first encountered the game at Chirowakamwe Primary School in Mutare, where the coach was Foster Mupita. Mr Mupita, he remembers, first impressed upon Kevin the need to work really hard in order to succeed in cricket. He progressed to Mutare Boys High School, Farai Chari being the coach here. Both men played a vital part in developing Kevin’s skills. He progressed very quickly, and at Under-13 level was already representing the Manicaland age-group team. He continued to represent them from Under-13 to Under-19 level – and he still qualifies for their Under-19 team. He scored centuries for their Under-14 and Under-19 teams.

318. This towering figure in the group photograph (tallest at the center of the standing row) has been involved in multiple roles with cricket in Zimbabwe. Who is he?

I'm just guessing: Dave Ellman-Brown?

Neither Alwyn Pichanik nor Dave Ellman-Brown. This man is/was not into administration much...

Ok, another clue. A couple of relatives of this man also got involved with cricket.
