Labasa football is known to dominate in tournaments and the current squad is going all out to do just that in the upcoming Digicel Fiji FACT.

While the weather has not been favorable, coach Thomas Vulivuli ensured his team stayed on course, bridging the gap between the young and old players as well as strengthening their team bond.

28-year-old Ashnil Raju who is one of the experienced players in the team says they’re on the right track.

“I believe that we have enough time to prepare for Fiji FACT. This is our third week of preparation and yes we are preparing well.”
