Solomons beach soccer team miss Swiss games
Updated
Solomon Islands beach soccer side will miss crucial build up games towards the World Cup in France, with the team still in Honiara.
The side missed its Sunday flight to Switzerland, as it didn't have transit visas for Australia.
Solomon Islands Football Federation general secretary Eddie Ngava says the team will miss most of its 10 day acclimatisation camp in Switzerland.
"The effect is that we are supposed to have a 10 day camp, two matches against the Swiss national team, that is going to be affected," Mr Ngava said.
"We are not sure how many matches we will get in Switzerland now."
The Bilikiki are expected to leave by Thursday, the Beach Soccer World Cup begins on July 17.
