The Fiji Netball side has confirmed they’ll not take part in the Pacific Mini Games in Vanuatu in December.

President, Wainikiti Bogidrau says, her management decided to pull out after the confirmation of the European tour in October.

“We had to look at the cost benefit and analysis of sending a team to Vanuatu as a post to playing these five test matches. We have realized that we have more to gain from the five test matches then sending a team to Vanuatu and having Fiji play against Papua New Guinea only and that being the only international ranked game.”
