ONLY IN FIJI !!!

Basketball Fiji is used to having its practice venue bookings being cancelled by the Fiji Sports Council and now they have done it to us again, but via a thrird party.

The venue for the Secondary Schools League was booked at Suva Grammar Secondary School and paid for last week.  On Friday afternoon we werre informed by Suva Grammar that our booking was cancelled and that our money would be returned. 

This was due to the Fiji Sports Council cancelling their booking for a rugby game at the National Sports Stadium for Saturday.  In turn Suva Grammar (who had a team in this game) changed the venue to their rugby ground.  Now that shouldn't cause a problem as a basketball court and a rugby ground are somewhat different, however the entrance to the rugby ground is through the basketball court and so we were not allowed to use it as the paying public needed to do so.

The League is due now to commence next Saturday (here's hoping anyway).

ONLY IN FIJI !!!
