Local Organising Committee (LOC) chief executive officer Seamus Marten

Thank you PNG for a successful tournament!

Committee CEO Seamus Marten thanked the people for turning up in numbers to fill the stadiums as well as the communities who adopted each of the visiting teams.

“The visiting teams have taken away precious memories of their time in Papua New Guinea and as ambassadors for the country overseas,” stated Marten.

“The mutual respect and affection between the teams and the fans is something that we will all remember for a long time to come.”
