The Fiji National Rugby League (FNRL) has appointed Apenisa Dansey as its new Chairman following a recent Board meeting held at FNRL Headquarters. This leadership change comes after a vote of no confidence was passed against former Chairman Akuila Masi, marking a significant shift in the organization’s direction.
FNRL officials have confirmed that all protocols were followed during this transition, highlighting the importance of maintaining internal confidentiality regarding Board matters. The organization remains committed to fostering stability and transparency as it looks to enhance the development of rugby league in Fiji.
While Dansey has chosen to refrain from making a statement at this stage, he is expected to speak publicly during a press conference scheduled for later this month. The FNRL has expressed its appreciation to stakeholders and the general public for their understanding during this transitional period, promising to provide updates following the anticipated press event.
This leadership transition ushers in a fresh opportunity for the FNRL to reinforce its dedication to the sport and the community, signaling a promising future for rugby league in Fiji. The organization’s focus on development and community engagement could lead to significant advancements in the sport, fostering stronger local and international connections.
