Bokobuka Vualiku Rugby Club

Welcome home boys 🚒🏉❤️

Last night was a truly special and unforgettable moment for our Bokobuka family as we gathered together to welcome our champions back home after their incredible journey to New Zealand. They returned not just as travelers, but as Champions of the 10th Annual Seafarers 7s Tournament. 🏆🇫🇯

The atmosphere was filled with excitement, pride, and gratitude. Families and friends came together with joyful hearts, each bringing food to share as part of the celebration. The boys at home worked hard preparing a lovo, ready to honour and welcome our heroes the traditional way.

It was powerful to see the club and families united. One by one, the players were given the opportunity to share their experiences from the tournament — the challenges they faced, the memories they made, and the pride of representing our club on foreign soil. Their stories moved everyone in the room and reminded us that this victory belongs not only to the team, but to the whole Bokobuka family.

The night ended with laughter, heartfelt conversations, and a shared meal together as we listened to more of their stories. It was more than just a celebration of rugby it was a celebration of family, sacrifice, unity, and the pride of our community.

Welcome home, champions. Your Bokobuka family is proud of you. ❤️🏉🏆

Vinaka vakalevu to the Bula Brothers of Ashburton, New Zealand for the warm welcome and the treat when our boys landed. Brotherhood isn’t just a word — it’s the way we lift each other, look after each other, and celebrate every step of the journey together. Today, you reminded us of that spirit once again.

After their sevens commitments, the boys were blessed with another unforgettable experience — a dream come true — watching the Highlanders take on the Chiefs live at Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin.

From Subrails Park in Labasa to the bright lights of Forsyth Barr… what a humbling reminder of how far faith, hard work, and unity can take us. Moments like this fuel the fire in our young men and strengthen the brotherhood that carries this club forward.
We move with gratitude, always.

To our incredible Fijian community who came out in numbers to support our boys vinaka vakalevu from the bottom of our hearts.

Being away from home is never easy, but seeing so many familiar faces in the crowd truly meant more than words can express. In that moment, you didn’t just show up you brought the Labasa spirit to life. The cheers, the encouragement, the flags, the smiles… it felt like we were playing right back at home.

Your hospitality, your warmth, and your unwavering support made our team feel embraced and strengthened. You reminded our boys that no matter where we go, we carry our people with us.

Thank you for standing with us, believing in us, and cheering our boys on every step of the way. This journey would not have been the same without you.

With heartfelt gratitude,
Vinaa valevu 🙏
