RFC Los Angeles impressed with Fijian Drua’s facility and program

The Rugby Football Club Los Angeles side is impressed with the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua’s facility and how remarkably their program was built.

Coach Stephen Hoiles says he was talking to their own staff and their analysts, and they are in awe of the facilities that the Drua now has.

Hoiles gave credit to the Fijian Drua and their work in the islands and also to World Rugby for making sure that this training facility for the Drua is one of the better ones that they have been to.

While speaking about the game against the Drua tomorrow, Hoiles says it is going to be a challenging one considering the hot weather that they will be playing in and also a lot of players are playing together for the first time which is good to see.

He adds they are also excited to have former Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s player and Olympic gold medallist Semi Kunatani joining the team for this historic match.

The RFC Los Angeles will take on the Fijian Drua at 3pm tomorrow at Churchill Park, Lautoka.
