HSBC World 7s series leaders, All Blacks 7s will be looking for consistency in the next two tournaments.

This was highlighted by head coach Clark Laidlaw as the team heads to USA for the Los Angeles 7s tournament this weekend.

Laidlaw says there was a lot to like in how the team performed in the Hamilton and Sydney 7s, and now their next job is to build on that and demonstrate consistency in their performances.

The coach has named two players with links to Fiji in the likes of Akuila Rokolisoa and Amanaki Nicole for the two tournaments.

The All Blacks 7s currently leads the overall standings with 85 points, followed by South Africa with 76 points.

Samoa and France are sitting at 3rd and 4th positions respectively with 68 points each while Fiji is in 5th place with 67 points.

Meanwhile, Fiji will play Japan at 7.05 am in their first pool match this Sunday, they will then take on Kenya at 10.18am before playing Australia at 2.05pm on Sunday.

The cup quarter finals will begin at 6.23am Monday, the cup semi finals will start at 10.14am and the cup final will be at 1.28pm Monday afternoon.
