RAIWAI STARTS UP AGAIN

While the competition doesn't start until the 27th September, long time Raiwai and basketball volunteer, Kelevi Serukalou, already has youngsters attending of an afternoon to learn some skills and how to play the game.

The new competition will cater for under 12 ages, under 14 and under 16.  The under 12 age group will allow for mixed teams of boys and girls.  These juniors will play each Saturday at the Youth Center.

Later in October, the seniors will be catered for and will play of a Tuesday and Thursday night.  This competition will rekindle a lot of past rivalries with teams drawn from the local neighbourhoods. 

In the past Raiwai has produced several national players and we in Basketball Fiji are looking forward to identifying more players from these competitions in the NDP.

Basketball Fiji and the Raiwai Basketball Association says a BIG VINAKA VAKALEVU to the Australian Government for their assistance in getting Raiwai back into basketball.
