Fiji Airways’ national men’s rugby team is gearing up for a challenging next leg of the HSBC SVNS Series in Vancouver, Canada, set for March 7-8. The team is placed in a competitive Pool B alongside world-class teams such as Australia, Argentina, and France, leaving no room for error in their quest for success.
Fiji enters the tournament after a commendable performance in Perth, where they secured the runners-up position following a thrilling final against South Africa. This recent momentum will serve them well as they prepare for the demanding encounters awaiting them in Canada.
The competition is fierce, as newly crowned Perth champions South Africa head Pool A, facing off against formidable opponents New Zealand, Spain, and Great Britain. In the women’s category, New Zealand, fresh off their triple championship victory in Perth, has been drawn in Pool A with France, Japan, and Great Britain. Meanwhile, Australian champions from Cape Town will contend with USA, hosts Canada, and Fiji in Pool B.
Additionally, the Vancouver event promises to be a rugby-filled weekend with the inclusion of the Teck Tri-Nations Challenge, featuring Canada, Japan, and Chile, at BC Place, enhancing the excitement for fans and players alike. The stakes are high, but with determination and skill, Fiji aims to rise to the occasion.
