Prime Minister of Samoa Hon Laaulialemalietoa Polataivao Leuatea Fosi Schmidt has passed on the nation’s best wishes and encouragement to the Toa Samoa ahead of this weekend’s Pacific Championship final against the Kiwis.
To Coach Ben Gardiner, Co Captains Peseta Tamalelagi Junior Paulo, Unasa Jarome Luai and the Toa Samoa Team.
As you prepare for the final battle this Sunday against the New Zealand Kiwis, I extend, on behalf of the Government and the people of Samoa, our heartfelt best wishes and unwavering support.
Your journey to this moment has been one of resilience, discipline, and faith.
You have carried the hopes of Samoa with pride and honour, showing the world the strength, humility, and unity that defines the Toa Samoa.
As you enter this decisive contest, remember that every opportunity counts. Make full use of every chance to secure points, no matter how small – for every point matters.
Stay composed, remain strategic, and trust the plan and the brotherhood that have brought you here.
Play with courage, intelligence, and the unshakable belief that you represent more than a team — you represent a Nation. Play for your families, your supporters, and for Samoa.
Above all, praise God in all circumstances – in victory and in challenge – for He is the source of your strength and purpose.
The prayers and pride of our people will surround you as you take the field. Go forth with faith and courage, Toa Samoa, and may God’s hand guide you in every moment.
la manuia le ta’aloga – God bless Toa Samoa. Go forth boldly into the final battle.
Yours Sincerely,
Hon. Laaulialemalietoa Leuatea Polataivao Fosi Schmidt
