Mara, originally from Qamea, Taveuni, expressed his gratitude toward his rugby club for their constant support and encouragement to pursue ambitious goals. “I may not have gotten the contract if it hadn’t been for the rugby club. The management always encourages us to pursue our dreams and dream big,” he stated.
Joining the ranks of the Western Sydney Two Blues, a club known for producing notable Australian rugby legends such as Bob Brown, Bill Cerutti, Phil Clements, and Andrew Leeds, Mara sees this as an incredible opportunity to elevate his game.
