In years gone by, this report would be prepared as a reflection on the past season as all enjoyed decent break before focusing on the requirements for the next year. It appears those days are now well behind us, as the season grows inexorably longer – as I write this report, well into November, around 60 – 80 referees are still being appointed on a weekly basis for both 7s and 15s competitions. This a matter of concern for the QRRA, as it places a heavy additional burden on our administrators, Appointments Officers and particularly on our long suffering referees (some of even the most dedicated of our members have needed to declare unavailability so that they can recover from injuries or preserve their bodies for the year ahead).

Therefore, I would also like to sincerely thank the Management and staff of the Fiji Rugby Union for the great vision in developing this rugby platform of our local players to aspire in their rugby career locally and abroad, at the same time generating a pool of players for the pathway to the Flying Fijian Squad. I also commend the Fijian Drua Management Team whereby our goals were directed successfully, meeting the Team’s objectives and opening opportunities for improvement throughout the competition. Chris Hickey (Director Technical) brought a great depth of experience into the Fijian Drua team, enabling the management team members and players to be at par with one another and highly adaptive to variations and open to change.
