Deans trophy finalist from last year, Suva Grammar School U19 rugby team is the first team from the Southern Zone that has already booked a place in the Deans quarterfinal.

Although the Southern Zone semifinals will be played this week, the draws have seen both the Grammarians U-19 rugby team number 1 and number 2 sides facing each other in one of the semifinals while the other semifinal will see Ratu Latianara Secondary taking on Nasinu Secondary School.

This means that one of the Suva Grammar U-19 rugby teams will be in the final of the Southern Zone next week which will give them the greenlight to be in the Deans quarterfinal.

In the Eastern Zone, defending champion Lelean together with QVS and RKS are looking good to be in the quarterfinals.

Only the top three teams from the Southern Zone, 3 from the Eastern Zone and 2 from the Western Zone will be in the Deans trophy quarterfinals on the 4th of August.
