The Ba Rugby Union has officially postponed the eagerly awaited “Battle of the Bridge” trial match. This decision comes in response to recent communications from the Fiji Rugby Union (FRU), which have suggested that the 2025 Skipper Cup season is projected to take place from August to November.
Following the FRU’s Annual General Meeting on November 9, the Ba Rugby Union will provide an update on the new date for the trial match. Officials from the Union highlighted that, considering the current timeline, conducting trials at this point may not be particularly beneficial.
However, if the Skipper Cup season were to be scheduled to start earlier, around February or March, the Ba Rugby Union intends to reschedule the “Battle of the Bridge” for later in the month. The union regrets any inconvenience caused to players and fans, and sincerely appreciates their understanding during this time.
This postponement reflects the union’s commitment to ensuring optimal preparation for the upcoming Skipper Cup season, prioritizing the well-being and readiness of the players. Fans can look forward to a well-organized and exciting trial match in the future, assuring that their patience will be rewarded.
In summary, the Ba Rugby Union has postponed the “Battle of the Bridge” due to scheduling adjustments related to the Skipper Cup season. They plan to provide further details after the FRU’s AGM, aiming for a future date that better suits all stakeholders involved.
