The Gospel High School U15 rugby team has been working to improve their game plan and focusing on both defence and attack, as they prepare to face a formidable Ratu Kadavulevu School side in the Vodafone Super Deans Competition tomorrow. Coach Epineri Koroiveibau says preparation is going well and the players are being trained to master key aspects of rugby before the game.

Koroiveibau says when it comes to the Deans competition, RKS is a team with a strong reputation.

He says this is the first time Gospel has qualified for the national Deans quarter-final in any grade, and they will make use of this opportunity to expose their talents.

The head coach says the foundation of a good team is a strong support system, and he acknowledged the support from parents, old scholars and teachers.

Gospel High will face RKS at 9:20am tomorrow at Bidesi Ground.

In other U15 matches, Marist Brothers High School will play Sigatoka Methodist College, Suva Grammar will face Holy Cross College at 9:20, and QVS will meet Natabua High School at 9:20.

For the U18 matches, QVS will take on Marist at 3:55pm, Nasinu Secondary School will play Tailevu North College at 11:40am, RKS will face Cuvu College at 1:05pm, and MGM High will play Ratu Navula College at 2:30.

All these games will be held at the HFC Bank Stadium, Buckhurst, and Bidesi Ground.
