The Fiji Corrections Service rugby team is gearing up to make a significant impact this year as they prepare to face the Police in the prestigious ANC Ratu Cakobau Bowl, scheduled for this Friday at Albert Park in Suva.
Prop Atunaisa Maiono expressed that last year’s lack of adequate preparation time hindered their performance, but with more than a month of focused training this year, the team is confident in their capabilities. “Last year, we didn’t have that much time to prepare, but this time around we were given a lot of time to prepare, and I believe we are ready,” he stated. Maiono also emphasized the team’s effort in familiarizing the new players with their playing style, mentoring them through rigorous training sessions.
The Fiji Corrections Service team aims to present a formidable challenge to the Police, who are also preparing intensively for their upcoming matches, including their own competitive landscape within the rugby community. This year marks not just an athletic rivalry but also a chance to showcase the spirit of competition that thrives in Fiji’s rich rugby culture.
As anticipation builds for the match, the Corrections Service team is poised to deliver a performance that reflects their hard work and commitment. The event at Albert Park will not only highlight their sporting skills but also provide the community with an opportunity to unite in support, celebrating the dedication and camaraderie that sports foster. With the focus on unity and pride, there is a hopeful outlook for an exciting confrontation between these two teams, enriching Fiji’s vibrant rugby culture further.
