Fitness is the main area which the Digicel Fiji 7's coaching staff will work on for the next leg of the IRB 7's series in New Zealand.
The Fiji 7's team arrived at the Nadi International Airport in the last hour where rugby fans gathered in numbers to receive their heros.
Assistant Coach, Etuate Waqa said there will be a fitness test in the first week of January which will kick start their preparation for the New Zealand 7's which will be held on the 3rd and 4th of February.
Waqa added that overall the team management is happy with the way Fiji played in the last three tournaments as Fiji is currently on top of the points table.
Meanwhile upon arrival the Fiji 7's team received a bonus payment of $101,120 by sponsors Digicel Fiji.
This is part of the contract where players will share a percentage of the payment.
