Seru
Rabeni, Sitiveni Sivivatu and Ifereimi Rawaqa were all attend
RKS. These players are well known all over the world for their
skills on the field. They all donned the Pacific Islanders
jerseys and played a vital role during the team test rugby
with Australia, New Zealand and South Africa in 2004.
During
their time at school, Rabeni was the member of RKS Under-19
in 1997. He scored a lone try in the final. Stee was the member
of the RKS Under 17 team which drew with the LMS dream team
in 1999. They drew 19 all where Stee scored all the three
tries for RKS. It was at this match where a rugby scout from
New Zealand picked Sivivatu to attend Wesley College in 2000.
However Rawaqa played "HOUSE TEAM" at school, representing
Cakau House. House Competition is much tougher compare to
school competition. This is where Rawaqa learned what GUTS
is all about where he carried along with him when he played
for Vuda, Lautoka,Pacific Islanders and as well as the Vodafone
Fiji.
