Defending Fiji Bitter Savusavu 7s champions, Police Blue know it is not going to be an easy task defending their title this weekend.

Coach Sale Tubuna says they fell short at the Fiji Bitter Labasa 7s tournament last week and they are out to redeem themselves this weekend in Savusavu.

Tubuna says the players regretted some of the decisions they made that proved too costly for them last week and they will be looking to patch that up.

He says there is no pressure on him as the coach but it is all about putting things right for his team and that is what he is focusing on right now.

Police Blue has been drawn in pool A of the Savusavu 7s competition alongside Black Heron, Capital Dobui and Oneva.

Army Green is in pool B with St Theresa Kubulau, Nasinu Brothers and DXC Barbarians.

Dominion Brothers, Bua Baabas, Savuiqali and Viani are in pool C while BLK Lavidi Brothers, Korotiki, Kingdom Warriors and Fire Gold Labasa are in pool D.

In pool E, Paradise Raiwasa Brothers are pooled alongside Nakavu, Aqua Pro St Joseph and Service Labasa.

Hosts Fiji Bitter Gaunavou is in pool F with Ukuinakau Baabas, Police White and Ikavuka.

Meanwhile, the entry fees for the first two days of the tournament are $5 for adults and $2 for children under 12 while the final day will see adults pay $7 and $2 for children under 12.

The tournament will be held from tomorrow till Saturday at Ratu Ganilau Park in Savusavu.
