The Fiji Under-20 extended squad will begin preparations for the World Rugby U20 championship on Monday.

Fiji Rugby named the extended squad last week as they look to narrow down the best players for the championship.

The World Rugby U20 Championship was scheduled to be hosted in northern Italy in late June and July last year but was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The national U20 side was drawn in Pool D with England, Italy and South Africa.

They were due to face England in their first pool match.
