Each of the 32 Rooster Chicken Fijiana Drua players and 10 team officials will receive a reward of $8,000 after winning the Super W title for the second year in a row.

Following yesterday’s meeting, the cabinet approved the monetary reward to the members of the Fijiana Drua for their remarkable achievement. Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka says the reward is in recognition of this significant achievement for the nation and women’s rugby in Fiji.

He says the decision is in pursuit of government’s commitment to the sport sector especially to teams and athletes with remarkable achievement in the world sports segment. The Prime Minister says the consecutive wins by the Fijiana Drua in the 2022 and 2023 tournaments are significant achievements for women’s rugby in Fiji and the bonus is well-deserved.
