The 12th South Pacific Games (Fijian: 12 ni Qito ena Ceva ni Pasifika), also known as Suva 2003, were held in Suva, Fiji from 28 June to 12 July 2003.[1]
The Games were the 12th South Pacific Games to be held since the event's inception and were the 40th anniversary of their beginnings in 1963. It was also the third time in the event's history that they had been hosted in Suva. For the first time, the Games included both traditional multi-sport event disciplines such as athletics and swimming together with region-specific and smaller events such as outrigger canoeing, surfing and lawn bowls. Almost 5,000 athletes participated in the Games.[2]
