Fijian Drua Coach Mick Byrne

The Swire Shipping Fijian Drua will be based in Fiji next season.

This has been confirmed by coach Mick Byrne in a zoom press conference.

Byrne says the details are yet to be confirmed on where exactly in Fiji they will be based and how things will work out.

He says the players will break camp after their last game this weekend and continue their off season training before regrouping for the new season.

When questioned about player contracts, Byrne says he is happy that no player has asked for an exit from their existing contract.

The Fijian Drua are expected to play more home games next season.

The Drua will meet the Chiefs at 3pm Saturday in Lautoka.

All platinum tickets have been booked out while the $95 tickets are selling very fast.

The silver and bronze tickets which cost $35 and $20 are still available.

The $20 tickets can only be purchased at the Lautoka City Council.
