Bereina Rugby League in Kairuku District of Central province received two new sets of rugby league uniforms over the weekend for the new season which will kick start next year 2023.
Nadi Panthers from Bereina village and BTS Eagles from Bereina station were proud recipients of the new uniforms. Central Provincial Administrator Francis Koaba during the presentation at the Kairuku district office at Bereina said the uniforms were a long overdue commitment made during the Robert Agarobe Boxing Tournament held last year at Bereina station.
The uniforms were purchased from Tura, a sports uniform company in Fiji costing almost K18, 000 for a set. Mr Koaba presented the team officials with 20 sets of uniforms each which includes a rugby shorts, socks and jersey.
Kairuku district administrator George Aminae thanked Mr Koaba and the Provincial Administration for fulfilling their commitment by delivering the rugby uniforms to the two teams.
President of Bereina Rugby League Association Aihi Billy said the competition was cancelled due to affiliation issues with PNGRFL but preparations are now underway for a trial match between the Central Dabaris Rugby League team at Bereina.
