Queen Victoria School will battle Ratu Kadavulevu School for the prestigious Lutubula Trophy in the Vodafone Eastern Zone Secondary School Rugby final this Saturday.

The Lutubula Trophy, once the hallmark of dominance among Eastern Zone giants like QVS, RKS, and Lelean Memorial School, returns to the spotlight after more than a decade.

It was last contested in 2013, when RKS defeated Lelean 12-3 in the Under-19 final.

The trophy forms part of the qualification pathway for schools targeting the Deans competition.

QVS will take on RKS in the U18 final at 3pm this Saturday at Nukuvuto Grounds in Tailevu.

Other finals on the day will also see QVS face RKS in the U14, U15, and U16 grades.

In the U17 final, QVS will take on Lelean, while QVS will meet Tailevu North College in the U19 grade.

In the Weet-Bix Raluve finals, St Vincent College will face Adi Cakobau School in the U16 grade, while Muaniweni College will take on ACS in the U18 decider.
