Fiji's dream to take part in the World Junior Championships next month in New Zealand seems to be far-off after the Association failed to secure sponsors for their 30 member team.

Fiji Touch Association President, Inoke Veresa said a total of $40 000 is needed for the team to be able to fly-off but it now seems that they will have to pull out of the Championships.

Veresa also revealed that financial problems coupled with visa problems have dampened their spirits but they will keep their options open.
