Ba Edge Labasa
The Labasa Under-12 boys lost 2-1 to Ba after a penalty shootout in the Vodafone Fiji Primary Schools Inter District Championship (IDC) final at Ratu Cakobau Park, Nausori yesterday.
The two teams were tied 1-1 at fulltime.
“Last year we didn’t even reach the knockout stages so this year is special for us,” Labasa team manager Mishaal Lingam said.
“It was a tough game and the boys did really well.
“Unfortunately, luck was not on our side but I am still proud of the boys.
“Preparing was a challenge because these players come from various schools.
“Travelling from the North to participate in Viti Levu was expensive and time consuming but we are glad that we participated.”
Lingam thanked parents for their support.
