Suva Rugby Union Club Secretary Paula Raqeukai says that looking for sponsorship for the competition this year was a major challenge as they were not able to find a major sponsor and it was a challenge maintaining the competition this year, however he hopes the Suva Rugby Union will be able to find new sponsors for the 2018 competition.
