FRU hunts for U20 players

The Fiji Rugby Union is in search of players who could be part of the Vodafone Fiji U20 trials.

 

FRU High-Performance Unit National Teams Manager Bill Gadolo said they are opening the invitation to players locally and overseas who must be born after 2002 and must be fully vaccinated.

 

He said the players will be considered for selection into the Vodafone Fijian Under-20 team which will prepare for the Oceania Under-20 tournament scheduled to be held in July at the Sunshine Coast in Australia.

 

"Those selected will be contacted by Vodafone Fijian Under-20 Head Coach Iferemi Rawaqa and his team."

 

"After we have received the expression of interest from the players we will then organize players in manageable groups for Fitness Testing, screening and later list Trial Teams for final selections."

 

Gadolo added that overseas-based players who wish to attend the trials will be given a cut-off date where they would be expected to be in the country to be considered for selections.

 

The deadline for the applications is 29th of this month.
