Swire Shipping Fijian Drua Players continued their community outreach program today at Saint Marcellin Primary School in Vatuwaqa as part of their grassroots development plan.

The players were led by Ratu Meli Derenalagi, and the students of Marcellin were glad to host the players in a Question and Answer session this afternoon.

Students gathered for the final week of school and waited patiently for their rugby icons to ask questions they have been preparing the entire week.

Students raised questions on how long some players were contracted to the Drua, how much the players are paid per season, and how many times the team lost this season.

Drua inside-centre Tuidraki Samusamuvodre says it was a fun interactive session with the Suva based students.

Samusamuvodre says they want to inspire the next generation of Drua players and help provide a pathway for them to fullfill their dreams and develop their talents.
