The Fijiana 7s team currently occupies the 11th position in the HSBC SVNS Series standings following the first leg of the circuit. Led by Timoci Volavola, the team introduced nine debutants who faced a challenging start over the past two weeks. Despite finishing last in the Dubai 7s, the Fijiana squad showed improvement with a 10th place finish in Cape Town just a week later.
As it stands, the Fijiana has accumulated four points, placing them just above Spain, which is in 12th. In contrast, New Zealand is leading the standings with 36 points after securing a silver medal in Dubai and a gold in Cape Town. Australia follows closely in second place with 34 points, while France rounds out the top three with 32 points from two bronze medal wins.
Overall, the Fijiana team may have faced some setbacks, but the invaluable experience gained from competing at this level will surely benefit their growth and development moving forward. The commitment to nurturing young talent suggests a promising future for the team as they continue to improve in upcoming tournaments.
