Evert officially joined the team on November 1st, bringing with him extensive international experience and specialized expertise that will support Cricket Namibia’s player development and high-performance objectives. As a CSA Level 3 coach, registered Biokineticist, and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), Laubscher is uniquely qualified to elevate Cricket Namibia’s programs for both the men’s and women’s teams.
Laubscher has gained valuable international experience working with the Bangladesh National Cricket Academy, Uganda Cricket, and the Oman Cricket team.

Additionally, he spent four years in private practice as a Biokineticist.
Reflecting on his new role, Evert Laubscher shared, “Over the past few years I have been in an opposing change room to the Eagles, this has given me an opportunity to observe them in the heat of the battle, when real character is exposed. I have always quietly admired their discipline, comradery and fighting spirit. I really look forward to being part of this organization and playing my part in building the game in Namibia.”
Cricket Namibia is currently constructing a gym at the FNB Namibia Cricket Ground, where Laubscher will assume responsibility as Gym Facility Manager upon completion. His role aligns with Cricket Namibia’s strategic focus on player development and includes overseeing conditioning and rehabilitation programs, leading the medical team, and managing the High-Performance Gym.
