What to watch on day three

Fifteen sports are on show on day three of Samoa 2019 XVI Pacific Games.

Golf tee’s off for the first time at the largest sporting event in the Pacific at the Fagalii Golf Course from 7.30am. 

Across Apia, the Faleata Sports Complex will have more medal action from archery, badminton (Multi-Sports Centre), lawn bowls, and table tennis (Harvest Centre).  

Squash will also continue the competitive matches, working up to medals on Thursday.  

Football matches will kick-off from 10am at the JS Blatter Football Complex after having a day off in competition.  Cricket will also carry on right through to Friday.

archery day 2

Archers armed and ready for first day of competitions.

Swimmers at the Aquatic Centre will start their heats from 9am, and medal events will be held in the evening. 

In the same complex is Gym 1, which will continue with the weightlifting talent on display, with medal events throughout the day. 

Next door to weightlifting at Gym 2 you will hear the crowds cheering at the basketball which has seen intense competition since the start of the Games.  Basketball runs from noon to 9pm.

Fingers crossed we continue day three with dry weather, so if you're keen on water sports, the action at Mulifanua continues from 8am with va’a and sailing.  Va’a will hold medal events throughout the day also. 

Otherwise, if you are out and about in Apia – the beach volleyball is steaming things up at the Apia waterfront and promises to serve up some great rivalry between the 17 nations competing, or head to nearby Apia Park to see the talent serve up the aces in tennis. Both events start at 9am.

Basketball, football, swimming and tennis entry is $5, all other venues are free entry.
