Defending Tailevu Zone champion, Ratu Kadavulevu School is again favourites to walk away with the top prize in today's zone meet at the TFL Stadium.

The boys from Delainakaikai will miss the services of last year's head coach Uraia Toribau who has joined Dudley High School this year, however they still have the bulk of the squad that won the Zone.

Last year, RKS bagged 29 gold, 11 silver and 14 bronze medals while, Queen Victoria School settled in second best with 10 gold, 21 silver and 17 bronze medals.

Defending girls champs Tailevu North College will again try to retain the title they have kept for the past few years.

They will face stiff competition from Saint Vincent, Wainibuka Secondary School and Dawasamu Secondary School.

The Tailevu Zone will start at 9am at the TFL Stadium.
