The Fijian National Teams are from the country of Fiji in Oceania, an area in the Southern Pacific Ocean.
Quidditch
The Fijian Quidditch team were in the playoffs of the 2014 Quidditch World Cup held in Argentina (Pm).
- Their team mascots, the Dukuwaga, were involved in terrifying and horrific incident at the opening ceremonies.
- During their match played against Nigeria, Beaters Quintia Qarase and Narinder Singh were outclassed by their Nigerian counterparts. The Fijian Seeker, Joseph Snuka, controversially caught the Snitch, ending the match while the team was still behind, and sending them out in the first round. Team manager and trainer Hector Bolobolo was not pleased at this result (Pm).
Commentary
Notes
Although Fiji was a participant in a Quidditch World Cup, Wikipedia has no mention of a Quidditch or other wizarding sports team (Wikipedia).
