National Para-athlete Iosefo Rakesa

National Para-athlete Iosefo Rakesa will try and establish himself in the Javelin event today at the Dubai World Para Athletics Championship.

This was after his 7th place finish in the Shot Put over the weekend where he recorded a distance of 9.82 metres which was outside his personal best.

According to his coach Albert Miller who is with him in Dubai, Rakesa could have done better in the shot put.

But Miller is hoping the Togo Villager from Qamea Island in Taveuni can put up a much-improved performance in the javelin event today.
