The Fiji Secondary Schools Rugby Union Southern zone officials believe the lower grades will be their trumpcards in this year’s Vodafone Deans Trophy competitio­n. The second round of competitio­n continued in various zones yesterday. Southern Zone vicepresid­ent Jiuta Mocesui said the lower grades would be their main target.

“One of the changes we saw this year is that the lower grades are competitiv­e from the under-14 to the 17 grades with top schools like Suva Grammar, Marist Brothers High School and John Wesley College.

“In the under-18 and under-19 there will be changes as we progress further with the competitio­n.

“On the field some of the players have yet to change from rugby league code to rugby union since they have been playing league in the first term.”
