Taf'aga Canoe Club was originally founded by four Rotuman men, united by a love for culture, the ocean, and their community. For the past 15 years, the club has been further developed by Katerina Morris and Guy Morris, and is now proudly led by President Mark Acraman and Head Coach Gary Volau.
Taf'aga welcome paddlers of all ages — from Under-13s to Masters — and focus on building both great athletes and strong, respectful individuals. While based in Suva, their identity remains firmly tied to Rotuman and Fijian heritage.
