“From high school athletics they move on to something bigger like this and we want to be there to also support them in this part of their journey.”
Secretary of Athletics Fiji, Lilian Amasa said the contingent was grateful for the donation of the funds that will go towards helping athletes get to the games.
“Each athlete’s costs comes to $3,000 so this amount will go a long way in helping many get to the Palau Mini Pacific Games, we are very grateful to Fiji Secondary School Athletics for stepping in during this time of need.”
