Thirty high school rugby players in Fiji will receive scholarships to help develop their talent and skills.

The players took part in a talent identification programme in Ba over the weekend. Fiji Under-20 head coach Tui Osborne said the names will be announced after the selection process is complete.

Coaches will review the players and study video footage before finalizing their choices. Another 30 players will join the Fiji Rugby Union’s High Performance programmes in their respective zones.

So we’re going to do a review with other coaches, review on film as well; we’ll look into the film and make sure we’re making the right decisions with our selections.
