Fiji form Women's Rugby Union (IRB.COM) Monday 12 November 2007

Fiji are out to emulate New Zealand and recent entrants Samoa on the women's scene

Women's rugby in the Oceania region has long been dominated by the Black Ferns of New Zealand but, a year after Samoa took part in the 2006 Women's Rugby World Cup, Fiji are now preparing to join the international ranks.

A new group of executives has been selected to steer a course for the women's game in Fiji.

The new Fiji Women's Rugby Union (FWRU) consist of journalist Vela Naucukidi (President), Fijiana playmaker Elaina McDonald (Secretary) and Veronika Talei (Treasurer).

First on the proposed FWRU list is a coaching clinic at the Peninsula Hotel and Albert Park, with the aim being to prepare a team to compete at international events leading to involvement in the biggest of all.

"Our aim is to take part in the Women's Rugby World Cup Sevens tournament in 2009," Naucukidi said.

"We don't have much time [to prepare to qualify]. We've organised two sevens tournaments, one this Saturday and one next month, and are inviting teams or any individuals who want to take part."
