On Tuesday this week, the Suva League Competition recommenced their Men’s and Women’s Basketball Competition at International Secondary School. This was the teams first hit out since the extremely successful Easter National Basketball Championships in April. The players, coaches and all those involved appreciate the associations continuing competitions as in previous years no basketball would be played after the Easter Championship.
