Congratulations are in order for Kroton Hela Hela Wigmen players, management, sponsors and everyone behind success story of the club. Hela Wigmen so far have been to 3 grand finals and won 2 and always in the finals since we entered in 2014. The club has groomed disciplined and quality players for Hunters and Kumuls and will continue to do so. Wigmen franchise purposely recruits players from other provinces. We use the Wigmen brand to extend friendship and relationship with other provinces. Thats why, everytime Wigmen play, you'll see not just Hela people support them. We are proud to be called a true unifying team flying the Hela flag. I encourage everyone to come support this Sunday at the National Football Stadium. Wigmen club has high disciple standards and ethics. Their seven days in the camp before each game day are well programmed for them. Whoever takes field is purely on training and fitness.
Wigmen club operates a shop at Waigani Steamship Compound selling Jerseys and all Wigman products. In the near future, we want the club to be self-sustaining. Wigmen club reports to the sponsors and IPA and IRC on quarterly basis. We allow the Board and management to manage the club without political interference. All we want is accountability of funds given, grooming good players and more importantly, win the cup. So far their performance have exceeded our expectation and I am proud of good job done by Chairman Andy Hetra, the Board, Coach Charlie Wabo, Management and players. This weekend's game with Waghi Tumbe will not be easy as they beat us two weeks ago. This time, my boys will not let it go. However, Hela and Jiwaka are known as "twin brothers". Knowing that, I encourage players from both sides to play hard, tackle hard but maintain discipline and display good sportsmanship. I also call on supporters on both sides to behave as well. Finally, Hon. Governor announced that Kroton Hela Wigman Stadium at Tari is behind schedule due to COVID-19 challenges but progressing smoothly by contractors TPDC and CCECC. TPDC is doing fencing, perimeter roads, and site clearance whilst CCECC is doing steel fabrication (for foundation at Tari and structural components at China). Hela Wigmen club will be relocated to Hela once the stadium and supporting infrastructure are in place. It is only fitting that Hela Wigmen club comes home with the cup. I therefore have challenged the players and coaching staff to bring 2021 Cup home at all costs. All the best to Wigmen, Tumbe, Tigers and Muruks for this Sunday's game.
