SPORT: Kumar and Finau will lead Ba's bid against Marist FC

RONEEL Kumar and Peni Finau will spearhead Ba's campaign in the Oceania Football Confederation O League Championship.

Finau and Kumar were named joint captains of the Ba side for its opening O League match against Marist Football Club of the Solomon Islands today.

The Ba side left for Honiara beaming with confidence.

Ba Football Association president Rishi Kumar said the side had prepared well for the away challenge.

He said playing in the O League is a step up from the local competition.

Kumar said the team would be out to erase the loss it suffered against Makuru FC in 2005.

"The boys know that they have a tough assignment," Kumar said.

"We will be carrying the hopes of the nation. We will need the prayers of the fans in the country to perform well.

We are not only representing Ba but Fiji in the championship." Security at the Lawson Tama Stadium in Honiara has been beefed up to prevent any disruptions.

The Solomon Islands Football Federation (SIFF) has arranged for a local security firm to organise guards to provide additional security inside the venue as in past international matches.

It is a FIFA requirement that international football match venues are properly set up to international standards with security a top priority.

Kumar said they had been briefed about the security arrangements.

"We have friends in the Solomon islands who have been updating use regularly on the situation there," Kumar said.

"It has been raining in Honiara recently.

"We have had rain here also. The boys have practised in the rain. So if the wet weather prevails then it will not be a problem for the side."

2006 Fiji Football Association Footballer of the Year Josaia Bukalidi will be a key player for the Ba team.

Bukalidi was among the top scorers in the 2006 season.

Ba lost to Makuru 8-2 on aggregate in the 2005 playoffs for the Oceania Club Championship.

The winner of this year's O League will gain direct entry to the FIFA World Club Championship in Japan in December and receive $1.6million.

Ba made a clean sweep of all the titles on the local soccer scene last year.

The MIB are also eyeing all the titles this year and this will start with the Pillay's Garments Champion versus Champion against Suva.

The two teams played out a 1-1 draw in the first leg in Suva and the return match will be played in Ba on March 4.
