18-year-old Joana Vosakiwaiwai is making a name for herself after being selected to represent England in their game against Ireland today.

The Nasilai, Tailevu speedster will be flanking the right wing for her England under-18 team.

Vosakiwaiwai says she is extremely happy to represent England but her family will also be flying the Fiji flag at the tournament.

Vosakiwaiwai’s father Josh Mua Taubale who serves in the British Army, says he is proud of his daughter's achievement and says her daughter's rise to fame came too fast and there is no substitute for hard work.

Taubale says his family is travelling to Ireland to support his daughter and cheer her on her first game.

England will face Ireland in Dublin at midnight tonight in the Six Nations Rugby U18 Women’s Festival.
