Digicel Fiji 7s coach Iliesa Tanivula is keeping a close eye on the team's training in Sigatoka and ironing out weaknesses before the team leave for Hong Kong on Monday.
Tanivula said that the boys know that Hong Kong is the most hard fought for tournament in the series and the boys know it is full of challenges.
As the side wraped up their training session in Lawaqa, Tanivula said this team faced a huge task of trying to restore Fiji's lost pride in the Happy Valley next weekend.
Meanwhile, New Zealand 7s captain DJ Forbes has been included in a 12 strong squad for the Hong Kong and Adelaide legs of the IRB Sevens.
Forbes returned to the side after recovering from a hamstring injury that saw him miss the Las Vegas tournament last month.
Tietjens said selecting the side is becoming more challenging with younger players starting to step up.
Two Fijian boys are in the team with the likes of Tomasi Cama Jnr and Lote Raikabula while David Raikuna has missed out.
New Zealand is currently first equal with England on World Series after four tournaments.
The Hong Kong tournament takes place next Friday and the Adelaide tournament on 2 3 April.
