- By JOHN CHETTY

THE Naitasiri Warriors Schoolgirl­s team and newcomers Jasper Willams High School from the West remain unbeaten after round 3 of the Pherrus Trophy Rugby League competitio­n.

According to FSSRL media officer Lai Corerega, the Naitasiri Warriors have demonstrat­ed consistenc­y in their performanc­e over the past two rounds, positionin­g them as strong contenders to lead their pool.

“The highlander­s have showcased exceptiona­l skills in both attack and defence, positionin­g them as one of the top teams likely to qualify for the nationals in April,” said Corerega.

Jasper Willams High School’s dedication to sports developmen­t, particular­ly in rugby league, is evident through their impressive performanc­e.

“They thrive on being the best team sport in the West compared to rugby, and athletics,” he said.

“They will continue to be the team to beat even at the nationals and will be a threat to some Southeast Zone Schoolgirl’s teams.

“We are not leaving out the other hardworkin­g teams, defending champs Namosi Secondary School will be up for a tough battleto defend their title this year.

“As the weather remains favourable, spectators can anticipate more thrilling games from the talented schoolgirl teams competing in the Pherrus Trophy Competitio­n.

“In the spirit of Internatio­nal Women’s Day, FSSRL extends their well wishes to all women and girls in Fiji, committing to the completion of the zone competitio­n by April without cancellati­ons unless necessary.
