Defending champions Ba has been drawn in a tough pool for this year’s first major soccer tournament of the year, the Fiji Bitter Fact.

The Men in Black which defeated Labasa in last year's final 1-0, has been drawn with Rewa, Suva, Nadroga and current league leaders Lautoka.

Pool 2 has host Nadi, Nasinu, Labasa, Navua and Tavua.

Suva Soccer president Maretino Nemani said this year's Fiji Fact will be quite interesting.
