Fiji Airways Fijiana 7s Team Coach, Saiasi Fuli believes one way his players can improve is by having scrimmage sessions with men's teams.
Fuli stated this after Fijiana's scrimmage session with Lami Cavaliers at Albert Park in Suva.
He says the scrimmage sessions against the men’s teams worked for them during the Oceania 7s tournament where they gained a spot for the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games.
He adds these sessions helps the players build their defence structures and build good communication skills within the team.
Fuli says they have changed their plan for this season's series where they will have more scrimmage sessions with the men's teams.
Fijiana is pooled with Australia, Spain and Ireland in the Dubai 7s which will be held from next Thursday to Sunday.
Their first pool match is against Australia at 12.12am Friday, then they'll play Spain at 6pm the same day, they will face Ireland at 11.12pm the same day in their last pool match.
Meanwhile, Fiji Men's team is pooled with France, Argentina and Japan.
Fiji’s first pool match is against Japan at 4.02am next Friday, Fiji will then take on Argentina at 10.04pm the same day and they will face France in their last match at 4.02am next Saturday.
