Harrison Valevatu

Baby Flying Fijians player Harrison Valevatu says it is a privilege to represent Fiji in the Under-20 World Championships in South Africa this weekend.

He adds that this opportunity allows him to reconnect with his cultural roots, as he has primarily grown up in Australia.

Valevatu says that he looks forward to achieving great things alongside his teammates.

“I’m just super grateful for the opportunity to get to play alongside these boys and see how they play, much rougher game but its better over here and it’s not so hot too.”
