“Without sponsors, nothing is possible. As you can see from the development that Fiji FA has done over the years, it’s because we had strong sponsors who supported Fiji FA over the years.”

He says the runner-up will settle for $5000, while the semi-finalists will both bag $2,500 each.

The pool draw is expected to be done sometime later this month.

The BOG tournament will be held for over two weeks.
