The Marist Seahawks Women's 7s team is confident that the four highly experienced Fijiana players in their squad will provide the much needed boost that they will need for the Bayleys Fiji Coral Coast 7s next week.

Coach Noa Kunatuba says they have a lot of young players in the team but the inclusion of Fijiana players Ana Maria Roqica, Lavenia Tinai, Rusila Naqasau and Viniana Riwai is encouraging.

Kunatuba says although they have done well in previous Bayleys Fiji Coral Coast 7s tournaments their plan this year is different.

Marist Seahawks is pooled with NZ Raiders and USA Serevi Select.

The Bayleys Fiji Coral Coast 7s will be held at Lawaqa Park from next Thursday to Saturday.

The prize money for both the men's and women's competition is $20,000.
