The Rooster Chicken Battle of the Giants football tournament will be held at the HFC Bank Stadium in Suva this year.

Fiji Football Association Chief Executive Mohammed Yusuf confirms that the Board is making arrangements with the Fiji Sports Council to have the tournament in Suva after the Fiji FACT was moved to Subrail Park in Labasa.

Yusuf says the BOG will be held a month after the Fiji FACT.

“They (FSC) are going around and making arrangements to allow us to hold BOG in the end of July and first week of August in Suva but they still have to formalize it by contacting a few other people who have booked in those dates for them to move their tournament to allow the BOG to be held in this.”
