Record equals at games
However only 1 record was equaled and that came from Alesi Ranadi of Cakaudrove, who achieved an equal distance of 4.09m set by Litia Vosa-dina of Lautoka in 2004.
Team Suva's Sekope Tuilevu, who took part in the Boys Long Jump in the under 13 grade, was unfortunate after his best jump of 5.74m was not counted as a record jump.
The record still stands at 5.6m set by Banuve Tabakaucoro of Suva in 2005.
It is understood that the Chief Referee was not at the Jump Pit when the Jump was made, and Tuilevu's jump will be counted as his Personal Best.
According to the Laws of the Game, the final decision is made by the Chief Referee, and Games official Vuli Waqa confirms that only the decision by the Chief Referee stands.
Team Suva Vice-President, Jiuta Waini-buli says that it is very sad that athletes have to suffer because of the laxity shown by the officials.
