Johannesburg - Athletics South Africa's new board, announced on Saturday, will concentrate on promoting the sport, administrator Ray Mali said.
"They will promote the sport, the rest is left to me and SASCOC. I will accommodate them in a clean room," he said shortly after the new board was announced at the Holiday Inn Garden Court, in Kempton Park.
The Athletics South Africa board took on a familiar look, following a hiccup that questioned the constitutionality of proceedings.
The council voted to continue the elections which saw six of the interim committee returned to the board which will guide athletics through to quadrennial elections in 2012 Olympic Year.
KwaZulu-Natal's Blanche Moila, was first to be elected taking the chair of cross country, while the province's president Aleck Skhosana, won his place as chair of the national road running commission.
Having resigned from the interim committee, both James Evans and Geraldine Pillay were returned to the board as track and field chair and athlete's chair respectively.
Motlatsi Keikabile from Athletics North West, Pieter Lourens (Boland), Arnaud Malherbe and Hendrick Ramaala, both from Central Gauteng, were elected as the four additional board members.
Lourens, and Ramaala were also involved in the interim structure, although Ramaala also resigned from that structure which came under severe criticism including suggestions they were worse than the previous management under suspended president Leonard Chuene.
The elections were held in order to meet the deadline set by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) that a new board be put in place by November.
Elections were not held for the post of president nor the positions of the two other board members who are currently attending disciplinary hearings for a number of allegations resulting from last year's handling of the Caster Semenya gender case and the resulting forensic investigation of ASA.
All 17 provinces of ASA were represented and 58 people were contesting for positions.
