South Africa's Olympic body Sascoc board member Ray Mali will take over Athletics South Africa's administration tomorrow as suspended ASA president Leonard Chuene faces being dismissed.

After a meeting yesterday, Sascoc said in a statement Mali would form an interim board to govern and regulate athletics in South Africa as the sport's administration faces an entire restructuring.

The Olympics body adds that the suspended ASA board and management figures will face disciplinary hearings.

ASA suffered another vote of no confidence when the Athletics Gauteng North board resigned.

Long-time administrator Daan du Toit and three other temporary members have been appointed to look after AGN board matters until elections can be held.

AGN joined the Eastern Province, Western Province, Boland and Free State athletics associations in officially denouncing the federation's board.
