Tuilakeba said.

“We have a couple of big names like Flying Fijians hooker Veremalua Vugakoto, enterprisi­ng Osea Waqa at fullback, old warhorse like Kavekini Varo and last year’s captain Jolame Luvevou.

“About nine players will make their debut.

Tuilakeba was the president of NRU in 2008 when the side held the Farebrothe­r Sullivan Trophy and lifted the Digicel Cup which is now known as the Skipper Cup. He said Yasawa moving up the ranks to the major division was a big achievemen­t.

“I want to congratula­te Yasawa for coming up to the Skipper Cup,” Tuilakeba said.

“It is a milestone achievemen­t for the YRU and the people of Yasawa.

“This will surely expose a lot of talents from the island group making pathways for players who have Yasawa at heart.”
