The Tailevu Rugby Union says they are taking one game at a time and believe their hard work will bear fruit as they prepare to take on Inkk Farebrother champion Naitasiri in the Skipper Cup semi-final this Saturday.

Tailevu Rugby Union President Joseph Rodan Snr says they will re-strategize, correct their mistakes, and prepare thoroughly for the semifinal.

He says the team trusts the process they have put in place, building a strong foundation through grassroots rugby, creating career pathways, and nurturing the next generation of Tailevu talent.

Rodan Snr adds that their quarter-final win reflects this long-term approach, and they will continue to move forward with faith, unity, and determination.

He is also calling for humility and focus as the team prepares for their biggest challenge yet.

Rodan Snr reaffirmed that the Union remains committed to sustainable rugby development and professional growth within the province.

Tailevu will take on Naitasiri at 3pm, and Malolo will face Nadi at 1pm at the HFC Bank Stadium in Suva this Saturday.
