With just two days remaining before Fiji takes on Wales in Cardiff in the Nations Championship, excitement is building as the Flying Fijians prepare for one of their biggest tests of the international season.
The squad has been putting the finishing touches on its preparations, with coaches and players focused on delivering a disciplined and physical performance against a Welsh side eager to impress on home soil.
The build-up to the match has also highlighted the strong rugby ties between Fiji and the United Kingdom.
British Deputy High Commissioner to Fiji, Michael Moody, recently reaffirmed the UK's support for rugby development in Fiji through a donation to the Fiji Rugby Union today.
Moody says rugby has a unique ability to bring people together, creating lasting connections and strengthening communities across Fiji.
He says the contribution is intended to support Fiji Rugby's grassroots programmes, ensuring the sport remains accessible to young players where future talent is identified and developed.
He added that the United Kingdom is proud to support initiatives that encourage greater participation in rugby and inspire the next generation of Flying Fijians.
Moody says as Fiji prepares to run onto the field in Cardiff, the continued support for rugby development serves as a reminder that the country's success on the international stage is built on strong grassroots foundations,with hopes that the next generation will continue to carry the Flying Fijians to greater heights.
In other matches this weekend, New Zealand will play France at 7.10pm Saturday in Christchurch, and Australia takes on Ireland at 10.10pm, while South Africa will face England at 3.40am Sunday with Argentina playing Scotland at 7.10am.
