2024 DIGICEL EXXONMOBIL CUP ROUND 6 and 7 SCHEDULES UPDATE
The Papua New Guinea National Rugby League Competition (PNGNRLC) is confident that the competition will continue despite the challenges of further flight cancellations and delays due to fuel shortage. As this situation is evolving rapidly, a decision to play games from the original draw that have reduced flight travel will be scheduled in the next few rounds.
Tony Archer, General Manager of Pathways and Performance, said, “We are remaining agile to ensure that the competition continues despite the current challenges we are facing. We are determined to let our fans and sponsors see exciting rugby league played whilst we navigate the flight issue.”
“Our clubs have been so cooperative in making that happen and we thank them all for the sacrifices they are making. We need to congratulate the efforts of our players and coaches who continue to improve every round as they showcase their wonderful skills despite disrupted preparation. We have had to make some changes from the original draw for the next two rounds to ensure that the games are played without jeopardising the integrity and fairness of the competition,” Archer stressed.
