Veresa Tuqovu has been named to debut for the Swire Shipping Fijian Warriors side that will be taking on Junior Japan today.
The 19-year-old turned down an offer from the Canberra Raiders development squad to pursue rugby in Fiji.
Coach Senirusi Seruvakula says Tuqovu has shown a lot of talent during the U20 scrimmage session in the last 2 weeks.
The Fijian Warriors play Junior Japan at 5pm today at ANZ Stadium.
Tonga A meets Samoa A in the opening match at 2.30pm.
