“We were on to our last week before elimination but now that school won’t start again until June, i think we’ll just have to wait for what the Ministry says.”

Konrote says if the Ministry and schools are not willing to resume competitions, Cricket Fiji will focus on their development programs in primary and secondary schools.

The Fiji Secondary School Cricket competition began on February 22nd at Albert Park in Suva.
