The Battle of the Giants is a football competition held every year, under the auspices of the Fiji Football Association in which the top district teams take part. The competition, which started in 1978, was due to the foresight of J.D. Maharaj, who saw it as a way of earning money for cash starved football associations in Fiji. This was the first time that a football competition in Fiji was sponsored by businesses. The competition has been held every year except 1987, when restrictions placed by the military government on organised competitions on Sunday led to all soccer competitions in Fiji being abandoned.

Dies war das erste Mal, dass ein Fußballwettbewerb auf Fidschi von einem Sponsor finanziert wurde. 1987 war das einzige Jahr, indem das Turnier nicht ausgetragen wurde.

  • "Битва Гигантов" — футбольное соревнование, проводящееся в Фиджи. Один из известных фиджийских спортсменов считал данное мероприятие легким способом заработать деньги и по его инициативе в 1978 было создано первое спортивное соревнование в Фиджи, которое кто-либо спонсировал. С тех пор соревнование проводили каждый год, исключая 1987, когда после переворота во власти правительство запретило проводить организованные соревнования по воскресеньям, следовательно "Битва Гигантов" на время была отменена.
