He added that 100% of players and officials of the Digicel Premier League, Digicel Senior League, Women’s Super League and the Futsal League have now received at least one dose of the the vaccine.

Pal said the figures have been sent to the Ministry of Health and Medical Services and Fiji FA is now awaiting clearance from them.
