Ba Eyes Fiji FACT Title After 15-Year Hiatus, Faces Defending Champions Labasa in Semis

The Roylux Realtors Men in Black, known as Ba, are determined to end their 15-year wait for the 2026 BIC Fiji FACT title. Despite being the most successful district in Fiji FACT history with eight championships, Ba has not lifted the trophy since 2010.

Under the new leadership of President Praneel Dayal, the team is undergoing a significant rebuilding phase to reclaim its powerhouse status in Fiji football. This year's tournament presents a unique challenge as Ba must first overcome the defending champions, Labasa, in the semifinal.

The match is scheduled to take place at Subrail Park, a venue where Ba has historically struggled, having never won a Fiji FACT title in Labasa nor reached the final on Northern soil. Head coach Ravinesh Kumar is also seeking his first tournament victory with the club.

Ba will face Labasa at 2 p.m. on Saturday. Live commentary of the match will be available on Radio Fiji 2, offering fans a chance to follow the crucial encounter.
