“Whenever the Fijian people see our men and women excel in competition against bigger and more resourced nations, it inspires all of us to pursue our passions with the confidence that we, as Fijians, are capable of anything. That our future, as Fijians, is not dictated by the size of our nation, but by the size of our hearts. By our determination to win and our unwillingness to take a back seat to anyone. By our commitment to be the very best that we can be.”

Some athletes who were present at the launch today included, Osea Kolinisau, Jerry Tuwai and Kitione Taliga from the 7’s side, Tevita Waranivalu and Saula Waqa from the football team and Sharon Smith and Matelita Buadromo from swimming.

Meanwhile, the PM will also announce the Fiji 7’s and Fijiana squads at the GPH tonight at 8.30pm and you can watch it live on FBC TV.
