Digicel Fiji Chief CEO David Butler is confident that the team will showcase a better standard of rugby at the next tournament in Hong Kong in three weeks time.
While welcoming the boys back from Wellington, where Fiji dropped out of the quarter final and then losing to South Africa in the finals in Las Vegas, Butler was adamant the boys will improve in Hong Kong.
Coach Iliesa Tanivula said that one of the key components that he will work on in their camp next week, is to tell the boys not to play catch-up rugby.
In Hong Kong Fiji is in Pool D alongside Kenya, Russia and Malaysia.
New Zealand and England share top spot in the Series table with 80 points.
Fiji and defending Hong Kong and Series champions Samoa are joint third on 64 points and South Africa is close behind in fifth on 56 points.
The event also offers the largest prize purse in international Sevens $US150, 000.
