The Nasinu Secondary School under 18 rugby side knows they will be carrying the hopes of the Southern Zone when they take on Cuvu College in the first semi final of the Vodafone Super Deans under 18 competition this weekend.
The school’s Vice Principal Navitalai Waiwalu says being the lone school from the Southern Zone, the players know it will not be an easy task carrying that weight upon their shoulders.
Waiwalu says they also know the challenge that Cuvu will be bringing into this match especially when they are like the breeding ground for the Nadroga Rugby Union team.
He says they are also overwhelmed with the support they are receiving, especially with the kind gesture from their Southern Zone brothers Marist Brothers’ High School after they donated a few stuff to help them in their preparation for this weekend.
He adds they want to create another piece of history this weekend and they are looking forward to it.
