Fiji national athletics rep Frances Tuva says the transition from the track to the rugby field has not been an easy task.

The Year-12 student featured for the Natabua High School Under-18 side that defeated Nasinu Secondary School 41-0 in the Weet-Bix Raluve national quarterfinals.

The former Adi Cakobau School student also featured in the Fiji Finals earlier this year, where she won gold for Natabua in the senior girls 200m.
