Camp for players

TAVUA will be looking at ways to organise a camp for the players ahead of their two remaining matches in the Fiji Sun/GP Batteries National Football League. This is in a bid to avoid playing the promotion-relegation. Tavua coach Saroj Kumar said they needed to get the players together as many resided out of the district. He said as a result, the players could not train together. Tavua's remaining matches are against Ba and Navua. Tavua and Savusavu have 11 points in the competition with Navua reeling at the bottom with ten points.
