Esala Nauga added another title to his colourful career after being named BLK Nadroga coach of 2016 during the awards night at the Shangri-La Fijian Resort on Tuesday.

The Nadroumai, Nadroga native is one of the most successful local coaches after he guided the Stallions to another successful season retaining the Skipper Cup and the HFC Farebrother Sullivan Challenge Series.

“We went through a lot of challenges and difficulties together as a team but I’m thankful we have a very supporting team management and committee,”Nauga said.

“Winning does not come easily as it requires a lot of sacrifice, dedication, hard work and discipline. And those were some of the values the players and the whole NRU have to have a successful season.

“I want to thank God for blessing me to win this award again, he is the source of knowledge and wisdom to my career and this is not an easy job.

“I want to thank everyone who has assisted me this year and we are looking forward to another successful season next year.”
