The Navua soccer team believes that using home grown players will uplift their performance in the upcoming Vodafone Fiji Fact.

Experience players like Simione Maikali, Jesoni Takala and Seveci Rokotakala are sure to lead the side with a lot of young players.

Navua also had a similar side in the last tournament of the Fiji Football calendar which was the Inter District Competition (IDC) where they won all their pool games but lost out to Ba in the semifinals by 2-1.
