It is very disheartening to read that Fiji’s hockey team which qualified to play in the World Cup in Oman later this month is struggling for funds because the Fiji Sports Commission (FSC) is not able to make enough money available for the event.
It would be interesting to receive an account from the FSC about how much support is given to say, netball for participating in the World Cup.
Also, how much funds are given to sports that don’t get anywhere near the achievement of hockey or netball.
Or for that matter, how much funds are used up in the administration of the Sports Commission itself, versus money given for actual sports.
