The Naitasiri rugby team will go out to win the Skipper Cup semifinal against Nadi today for its former coach, Eroni Vereivalu who passed away last month.

Vereivalu had a big contribution to Naitasiri’s success in provincial rugby.

The two teams met in round one where Naitasiri edged Nadi 26-21 in a tough encounter.

Naitasiri will host Nadi at 3pm today at Ratu Cakobau Park.

The winner will face Nadroga in the Skipper Cup final.
