Three games. Three massive challenges. One proud group representing our little nation of islands on the world stage 🇨🇰🌍🏏

From taking on the power of Papua New Guinea, to battling hard against South Korea, and then going toe-to-toe with Vanuatu in the Super Six stage — this group continues to show heart, resilience and pride every time they step onto the field.

Results don’t always tell the full story. Growth, belief, brotherhood and representing our people with pride means everything to this team. ❤️💙💚

We keep learning. We keep fighting. We keep growing.

Meitaki ma’ata to everyone back home and around the world supporting the boys from afar we feel your support every step of the way. 🇨🇰
