Labasa to travel with 18 players for Fiji FACT

May 1, 2012 1:00 am

Labasa soccer secretary, Satishwar Chand says players will have to fight for the place in the squad as the team will only be travelling with 18 players for the 2012 Vodafone Fiji FACT.

Chand says they have already named their 22 member squad however; best 18 will be confirmed later.

“The reason is that we are in the interim and we don’t want to spend money unnecessarily so that when we come back we have money left for travelling for other away games”.
