The Fiji Football Association Women’s Inter-District Championship is set to commence tomorrow at the academy ground in Vatuwaqa, generating excitement among teams and fans alike. The tournament will kick off with a clash between Ba and Rewa at noon, followed by Suva facing Labasa at 2 PM.
Suva’s Head Coach, Savaira Ranatuniratu, expressed confidence as her team prepares to tackle Labasa in their opening match.
