The Fiji Airways Fiji Men’s 7s team is on a mission to make history by securing back-to-back victories, a feat they last accomplished in 2019. The team’s impressive legacy in the World Sevens Series includes only one back-to-back win in its 24-year history, where they triumphed at the London 7s against Australia and followed it up with a victory over New Zealand in Paris the following week.
Head coach Osea Kolinisau emphasized the importance of consistency as the team prepares for the Cape Town 7s. He has been intensely training the players over recent days in Cape Town to ensure they perform at their best.
Even though their pool may seem straightforward, Kolinisau urged caution and warned against any complacency. The new tournament format in Cape Town means that every team will be striving for victory to secure maximum points in both men’s and women’s competitions.
Fiji will begin their Cape Town 7s journey against Uruguay at 12:38 AM tomorrow, followed by a match against Great Britain at 4:38 AM.
This tournament not only offers Fiji an opportunity to etch their name in history again but also to rally the team spirit and showcase their resilience on the world stage. Fans and supporters are hopeful as they anticipate the team’s performance and the possibility of another memorable victory.
Overall, as Fiji prepares for this competitive challenge, there is optimism in the air about what their pursuit of glory might bring, both for the team and its passionate followers.
