The Fiji Airways Men’s 7s team is aiming to make history by achieving back-to-back wins in the World Sevens Series, a feat they last accomplished in 2019. Over the 24 years of the tournament, Fiji has only secured consecutive titles once, claiming victory in the London 7s by defeating Australia, followed by a win against New Zealand in Paris the subsequent week.
Head coach Osea Kolinisau emphasizes the importance of consistency for his players as they prepare for the Cape Town 7s tournament. He has been actively training the team over the past few days in Cape Town to ensure they perform at their best. Despite appearing to have an easier pool, Kolinisau has advised his players not to underestimate their opponents and to maintain focus.
The revised format of the Cape Town tournament has increased the stakes, with all teams aiming for victory to earn maximum points in both the men’s and women’s competitions. Fiji’s campaign will commence with a match against Uruguay at 12:38 AM tomorrow, followed by their second pool match against Great Britain at 4:38 AM.
With a rich history and a promising future, the Fiji Men’s 7s team stands on the brink of a remarkable achievement. Fans are hopeful that the team’s dedication and expert coaching will lead them to yet another moment of glory on the international stage.
