The Ba Rugby Union has made the decision to postpone the highly anticipated “Battle of the Bridge” trial match. This comes in response to new information from the Fiji Rugby Union (FRU), suggesting that the 2025 Skipper Cup season is expected to take place from August to November.

In a statement, the Ba Rugby Union indicated that they would provide an update on the match’s rescheduling following the FRU’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Saturday. The officials noted that conducting trials at this time might not be beneficial, given the uncertainty surrounding the season’s start date. The FRU AGM is set for November 9, which is expected to offer more clarity on the situation.

If the Skipper Cup season were to begin in February or March, the Ba Rugby Union has plans to hold the “Battle of the Bridge” later in the month. The union has expressed regret for any inconvenience this may cause to players and fans, while also thanking them for their understanding.

This postponement, while disappointing for enthusiasts of the sport, reflects the Ba Rugby Union’s commitment to ensuring that the upcoming season is organized effectively. There’s hope that once the fog lifts on the scheduling details after the FRU AGM, players and fans alike will be able to mark their calendars for this celebrated match.

In summary, the postponement allows for more strategic planning for the upcoming season, and it underscores the union’s dedication to the collective interests of players and supporters.
