[2] South African cricket was still racially segregated at that time, and matches in the non-white Howa Bowl were consequently not classed as first-class, with that status being assigned only retrospectively.
Conrad played irregularly for Western Province throughout the final years of Howa Bowl's existence, including two matches in the 1990–91 season, the last before integration.
[4] The Howa Bowl and the previously white-only Currie Cup were integrated for the 1991–92 season, but Conrad never made Western Province's senior team at that level.
[8] Conrad left the Lions in July 2005, instead being named to replace Peter Kirsten as the coach of the Western Province–Boland franchise (now known as the Cape Cobras).
[11] He replaced another ex-Western Province player, Barney Mohamed,[12] and had had previous experience in Uganda, spending a week in the country in June 2005 (during the South African off-season) to help the national side prepare for the 2005 ICC Trophy.
He nonetheless agreed to stay on as a member of the technical team for the 2011 World Cricket League tournament, under his replacement as head coach, Martin Suji.
