Rooster Chicken Fijiana 15s Captain Sereima Leweniqila says after almost a decade of playing she did not realise what the rewards were or where she would end up in until the night that she saw the World Cup Trophy.

Fijiana Coach, Senirusi Seruvakula says the girls are physically and mentally ready for their game against the NZ Maori on Friday.

Leweniqila says there are a couple of things that they have learnt from the Super W competition in terms of the game, things to do on and off the field as well as the importance of team bonding.

He says they have already had two sessions at the sand dunes over the last two weeks as well as one at the Naval Base in Togalevu.

Seruvakula says they are looking at the physicality, if they can match the New Zealand Maori Wahine because of the teams that they will be playing in the World Cup.

He says the Fijiana 7s players get in this afternoon and they march into camp tomorrow to prepare for the game against Canada next week.

The Rooster Chicken Fijiana will play the New Zealand Wahine Maori at 6pm this Friday at the HFC Bank Stadium.
