He was part of the champion Nadi team which ruled the soccer fraternity in the late 70's and early 90's. Incidentially, it was in his reign as the President of Nadi F.C. that brought the glory days to the Nadi Soccer. Under his leadership from 1995, Nadi managed to win the Fiji Fact, Battle of the Giants and Girmit Tourney.
