Tsaka to represent PNG at international rugby meetings

Chairman of the PNG Rugby Football League, Sandis Tsaka will represent PNG at the annual Asia Pacific Rugby League Confederation (APRLC) and Rugby League International Federation (RLIF) meetings in Sydney on Saturday.

Tsaka said one of the main topics on the agenda is the International Calendar for the next five years starting in 2018.

“This is part of the Rugby League International Board’s aim to align with the Global Conversion Strategy to support the growth of international rugby league,” said Tsaka.

The chairman said this will also be the first time for all Pacific members to meet.

“Our four neighbours – Fiji, Tonga, Samoa and Cook Islands – are now full members of the RLIF and this meeting will be a milestone when all five Pacific nations including PNG come together,” said Tsaka.

CEO of the PNGRFL, Reatau Rau will also be in attendance.
