The Ra district teams are excited to participate in the Vodafone Kaji competition, as expressed by Under-13 coach Varayame Ratu. He emphasized that the primary objective for the team is to gain valuable exposure and help develop the skills of their young players.

Although the team only had a week of training before the competition commenced at HFC Bank Stadium in Suva, their spirits remain high. They faced challenges, including lacking training shoes, yet this did not hinder them from representing their district at the national level.

The teams, comprising U13 and U14 players from various locations including Drauniivi, Bureiwai, and Bucalevu, aim not only for victory but also to enhance the rugby skills of the young boys. Ratu noted the positive performance of Fiji’s women’s rugby teams, which serves as motivation for aspiring young female athletes to pursue rugby as they prepare for high school competitions.

The players engage in three daily training sessions that begin with morning devotion, fostering both physical and spiritual growth. Ratu encouraged the Ra community in Suva to come out and support their teams, reinforcing the unity and pride of representing their district.

This spirit of perseverance and development reflects a hopeful future for these young athletes, showing that dedication, regardless of challenges, can lead to growth both on and off the field.

Summary: The Ra district teams are participating in the Vodafone Kaji competition with a focus on skill development rather than just winning. Coach Varayame Ratu highlights the importance of community support and the training efforts of the young players, who are overcoming challenges to represent their district proudly.
