CRU competition manager Paul Joseph says that they are aiming for another exciting year for the competition.

He said 2017, was a challenging year for Rugby union taking into consideration the split of the association.

Joseph admitted that the split has created many challenges on its own but is encouraged stating that the management and teams are taking on the challenge and made a turn for the better.

“Indeed it was a challenging time, however it was also a blessing in disguise.

“With the split we were able to be kept on our toes and with the eight teams that remained we had extremely outstanding performances for the year”, he said.

The manager says now they will be looking at the season proper, with many other competitions in between including the sevens tournament and the Hiri Cup.

Joseph says it is business as usual for the Bava Park calling on supporters, fans as well players are all welcome to come by.
