President Ratu Wiliame Katonivere says he has the utmost confidence in the Team Fiji athletes to achieve success at the 2023 Pacific Games in the Solomon Islands.
While presenting their iTatau to the President today, Ratu Wiliame reminded the athletes that they are not only representing themselves, but their families and provinces as well.
He says given the mammoth task at hand, the athletes must leave behind any personal issues and challenges that might hinder their performance, and focus solely on achieving their goal at the regional meet.
“As you leave our shores today and in the next few days, I ask that you leave as a true Fijian. As I have always said, leave everything here with me. Leave all your personal issues, leave anything that you think that will not be part of your success, leave it here with me. ”
