Nagasau says the fact that the young girls are pulling their weight is boosting the senior players in the team.

“We have new girls coming in and we are very happy for them in putting their hands up to play for the Fijiana team for us it is something that we really appreciate them for giving up their time, especially at this young age.”

The Fijiana is pooled with hosts New Zealand, Great Britain and Invitational team Papua New Guinea.

The Hamilton 7s kicks off on the 21st to the 22nd of this month.
