Moving Picture: Samoan at home on Fox Valley rugby team

October 25, 2013

Lafitaga Lealaua moved from his native Samoa to Elgin five years ago, and immediately sought out a club to play his favorite sport of rugby. He quickly found the Fox Valley Marois Rugby Football Club and now he plays for the camaraderie almost as much as the sport itself. "Inside the game, we're always hitting each other," Lealaua says, "At the end, after 80 minutes, and we're all friends. That is rugby. It's not just a game, it's a friendship thing."
