South Africa 7s team coach Neil Powell says they are trying to create a belief that they can beat the Fiji 7s team on any day.

Powell says they beat Fiji three times last season and it is key for them to keep putting one over Fiji and create the belief that they can beat them on any day and at any time.

He says avoiding injuries will be vital in trying to defend their Cape Town Sevens title this weekend.

South Africa is in Pool A with Australia, USA and Russia.

Meanwhile, the Vodafone Fiji 7s team is pooled with France, Kenya and Japan in the Cape Town 7s.

Fiji will play Japan at 11.05pm Saturday, they will then play Kenya at 2.26am Sunday and Fiji’s final pool match is against France at 6.12am Sunday.

The Cup quarterfinals will begin at 11.04pm Sunday, the semifinals will start at 3.34am Monday and the final will be played at 6.44am Monday.
