Opening the games this morning, Vodafone Business Accounts Manager North Savnish Kumar says Kaji Rugby has been around for a number of years and has produced some big names in the national and international rugby scene.

Speaking to children participating in the games, Kumar encouraged them to train hard, play smart and strive to perfect their skills.

To the parents, he reminded them that not everyone will become Fiji rugby reps but they have positioned their child to learn team work, dedication and to strive for success.

The competition ends tomorrow.
