Repeka Adi Tove
Rugby wasn’t always part of the plan for Repeka Adi Tove, the Fijian Drua women’s wing and halfback.
Education came first, and only after excelling in her studies did she embrace rugby as her calling.
Now, the former Nadroga standout is making waves in the Drua, with big goals for the season.
“Rugby was like my second option,” Tove shared. “I had to do my schoolwork first. I’m proud that I achieved my education, from primary to tertiary, before deciding to take on rugby.”
What started as a hobby quickly turned into a passion. After two years with Nadroga, Tove earned her spot in the Fijian Drua extended squad in 2024.
Reflecting on her journey, the Nahigatoka lass admitted the transition wasn’t easy but was a challenge she was eager to embrace.
The Fijian Drua women’s side will open their 2025 Super W account against defending champions Waratahs in Sydney on the 28th of next month.
