The Fiji Hockey Federation will be hosting the Oceania Challenge Cup next month.
President Robin Mitchell says this year’s competition includes for the first time teams from outside the region.
“We’re pleased that the Japan U21 Men’s team and U18 Women’s team will be taking part in the competition. Normally the series involved annual competition between Men and Women’s Hockey teams representing Australian Country, NZ President’s XI and Fiji President’s XI teams."
Fiji will be represented by the men’s and women’s President’s XI and a
second women’s team composed mainly of U18 representatives who were
selected after the Secondary School championships held in Levuka in
August.
The Oceania Cup will be held from the 9th to the 16th of next month at the National Hockey Centre.
