Fiji 7s assistant coach, Etuate Waqa says the players in the team tend to lose focus during pivotal moments in their games which has led to their downfall in past outings.

Waqa adds that the focus will be on maintaining 100% focus throughout a match as they prepare to head to the European leg of the series in Scotland and England.

_“We just have to iron out some of the errors. And I think the boys have to learn not to switch off all the time instead of switching on, switching off, during their focus in the field. I think those are some of the factors that can lift their game again before their game, the preparation in Scotland and England.” _
