In addition to their on-court preparations, the club recently launched its first community outreach initiative a Rubbish Pick-Up Drive from Muanikau Park to Stella Maris School in Suva, reinforcing their commitment to social responsibility.

She says acts were not just programs for the club, but were life lessons for their players, teaching them about generosity, national pride and having empathy.
