Let the games begin
The biggest sporting event in the country is just 2 hours away from the start at the TFL Stadium with a lot of expectation from the athletes and the schools who have been preparing for the past few months.
Defending boy’s division champion, Suva Grammar has kept a low profile for the two day event, and although they finished in second spot at the Suva Zone 2, they will still be one of the strong contenders to retain their title.
Grammar under the watchful eyes of coach Jone Delai and Makelesi Bulikiobo have the likes of athletes such as Mataiasi Savou, Lepani Naivalu, his younger brother Glen and Eroni Cagi to rely on to be able to defend the boys division title.
Their main threat will be Marist Brothers High School who defeated them in the Suva Zone 2.
Marist for the past 3 years has failed to deliver the results which they were known for in the past.
The trump card and 100 metres favorite Banuve Tabakaucoro said he is under no pressure at all going into this race.
Former Coke Games champion and fitness expert Henry Elder said the competition will be the toughest for many athletes.
The 2010 Coca-Cola games will be officially opened by the President Ratu Epeli Nailatikau at 9am.
The first event of the day in the field event will start at 9am in the intermediate boy’s javelin while in the track the open girls event starts at 9.45am.
