Defending Skipper Cup champions, Nadi will take on Yasawa in round 1 of the Skipper Cup Competition at Prince Charles Park on Saturday.

During the launch of the competition, the Nadi Rugby Union has laid down the challenge to all the other 7 teams in this year’s competition to bring their A-game.

Fiji Rugby Union Administrator Simione Valenitabua urged all the unions participating in this year’s competition to give their all when representing their union.

He says this is the pathway to greater heights and everything starts from the grassroots level.

In other matches in round 1 this week, Suva will play Nadroga at the HFC Bank Stadium, Macuata will host Naitasiri at Subrail Park and Namosi will play Tailevu at Ratu Cakobau Park.

All matches start at 3pm this Saturday.
