The Natabua High School Under-17 team aims to get even against Marist Brothers High School on Saturday.

This was after the Lautoka school lost to MBHS in the U16 final last year.

Coach Tevita Ratucadra said the team was focusing more on their defence.

“Defence let us down last year and we aim to be complete team on Saturday.

“We have some new players as some of our old players last year have joined other schools.”

Ratucadra said the team had been preparing for the last three weeks after the western zone finals.

“We will do our best because we know Marist is a strong team,”he said

“We will try to do better than last year.”

U15 coach Sairusi Naituku made similar comments regarding their preparations for the match against Suva Grammar School.

“In our game against Ratu Navula we made too many mistakes and dropping too many balls,”Naituku said.

School principal Narendra Sharma said the boys had been receiving assistance from the school management.
