The Fiji Netball side will play two more warm up matches against the Jamaican and the Singapore sides before their first match against Wales at the World Cup next Friday.

Team captain Mere Rabuka Neiliku says this will be a good hit out for the Pearls ahead of the World games.

“I think it’s a great opportunity for us to wake up before the first game against Wales and to play against two sides who have different game style as we have one Caribbean and we have an Asian, is a good thing. Picking up with the intensity of their game will help us to play against wales come the 7th of August.”
