Tahiti snub

Pacific Games Council rejects Tahiti snub

The withdrawal, announced by the director of French Polynesia's youth and sport service Anthony Pheu, follows a disagreement over who should represent Tahiti's boxers in Port Vila in December.

In August, a court order annulled the elections of the officers of the Pacific Games Association of Tahiti.

The President of the Games Council, Vidhya Lakhan, said all entries for the Mini Games need to be submitted under the signature of the President or Secretary General of a member country's Pacific Games Association.
