Extra Bula FC head coach Stephane Auvray says mental preparation will be key as his young squad gears up for their first professional fixture this Saturday.
Auvray says the team has been deliberately built around youth as part of a long-term development plan, acknowledging that this approach will bring early challenges.

He says that while immediate results may be inconsistent, the focus is on gaining experience that will benefit the team in the seasons ahead.
Bula FC will look to harness their energy and youthful confidence when they take on Vanuatu United FC in the opening match of the OFC Pro League at 2pm on Saturday at Eden Park in Auckland.
The side will then take on South Island United next Tuesday at 2pm at North Harbour Stadium.
Bula FC will wrap up Round 1 with a showdown against Auckland FC next Friday at 6pm, also at North Harbour Stadium.
