The Skipper Cup and Marama Championship matches kick off from tomorrow.

The tournaments will showcase the talents, skills, and preparations of teams for the upcoming season.

Speaking at the event, Fiji Rugby Union CEO Koli Sewabu said that despite limited resources across the provincial unions, the commitment at the administrative level to uplift rugby in communities remains strong.

Sewabu emphasized that the Skipper and Marama Cups are more than just domestic competitions — they are essential development pathways for players.

He says these platforms allow our young men and women to grow and rise through the ranks.
