Ratu Sukuna Memorial School and Marist Brothers High School are the two latest schools to join the South Eastern Secondary Schools Rugby League Zone.

SESSRL President Aisake Tuapati says the two schools will add stiff competition to the division which already features top schools such as Nasinu Secondary School, Queen Victoria School, Assemblies of God High School and Lomaivuna High School.

Teams in the Under-19 grade will also participate in a weekly challenge match for the Vodafone Bati Shield.

In the first challenge match of the season last weekend, Nasinu Secondary School edged QVS 15-12.

Round Two will be held on Saturday at Marcellin Primary School in Vatuwaqa.
