It will be a baptism of fire for the new players selected into the Fiji Airways Fijiana 7s side for the upcoming Oceania 7s Rugby Championship next week.

According to coach Saiasi Fuli, this is a great time to introduce these players into the system, especially after the departure of a few of their senior players.

Fuli says that is what the team is for and that is to create the right culture for these players and also entice girls and women in Fiji who want to play rugby.

He further says they have also set up a team to accommodate women in Fiji who are interested in getting into rugby.

Fuli says the team have a strong culture and philosophy and that is to contest well in international tournaments he says it is good that the right time has arrived.

The Oceania 7s will be held from next Friday to Sunday at Ballymore Stadium in Brisbane.
