Being sidelined for almost a year, Waqa-Paul says her big break is a re-call to the Fiji Pearls once again.

“I have been called back into the squad and as a veteran player, yes I will do my best and show good examples to the little ones that are coming up. My main aim too is to bring Fiji Netball to the ranking it once was.”

Alesi Waqa- Paul has played 68 tests for the Fiji Pearls with 2 gold medals from the Pacific Games.
