Former Olympian and Athlete Banuve Tabakaucoro has opened his Academy called the Bullet Academy Athletics Club and the 32-year-old says this is a way of passing on his knowledge and guiding the young and upcoming stars of Fiji.

The former Marist Brothers High School sprinter has been involved in the sport of athletics for the last 24 years and has represented Fiji for the last 18 years before retiring in 2023.

Tabakaucoro says his journey has been a long and fruitful one and he has learned so much as an athlete, travelled and competed in many places all over the world and he is grateful that he had the opportunity to experience it all.

The former Olympian says over the past few weeks he has been working with primary school students who are gearing up for the Suva Zone meets in a few weeks' time.

He says he will have the opportunity to introduce his committee and the coaches that are working alongside him soon.

Tabakaucoro urges parents not to hesitate to reach out to him on the following number 7172842 if they want their children’s athletic skills developed.
