FRU AGM on 9th Nov, new company name is Fiji Rakavi Football Union Limited

The Fiji Rugby Union will have their Annual General Meeting on 9 November to select a new Board to take them forward.

Fiji Rugby Interim Chair Peter Mazey says that after their Special General Meeting in June it was decided that a new company will be formed to manage and operate the Fiji Rugby Union.

Mazey says there were delays in having that company formed because when their lawyers went to get the company registered the name, Fiji Rugby Union Limited was not available, so they had to find a name that is acceptable to the Companies Office.

Mazey says the name of the new company is Fiji Rakavi Football Union Limited.

He says the Unions have to elect and put into place a Nominations Committee which was just finalised last Friday.

Mazey says at their Board meeting they were able to announce to the Unions the names of the Nominations Committee which is made up of FNU’s Head of Law School, Ana Rokomokoti, Post Fiji CEO Isaac Mow, Fiji Commerce & Employers Federation CEO Kameli Batiweti and current Interim Board member Jenny Seeto.

On issues that have been raised by former Fiji Water Flying Fijians skipper Waisea Nayacalevu and other players regarding payments, Mazey says the Trustees have engaged an independent Accounting Auditor to review all payments.
