The Vodafone Fijiana XVs are looking forward to rising to the challenge in the upcoming Women’s Rugby World Cup in England next week.

Fijiana is in Pool B alongside Canada, Scotland and Wales.

Coach Ioan Cunningham says it is a great challenge for them, and it is a very tough and competitive pool.

Cunningham says playing world number 2-ranked Canada in their first pool match is a great challenge, knowing they are up there with some of the best teams around.
