The Fijiana 7s team is gearing up for a new beginning as they prepare to compete in the 2024-25 HSBC SVNS opener in Dubai. The squad, which features a fresh lineup, includes nine debutants out of 13 team members, signaling a significant shift under the leadership of Interim Head Coach Timoci Volavola.
Among the newcomers making their first appearance for the Fijiana 7s are Mere Vocevoce, Sera Bolatini, Silika Qalo, Ruth Raketekete, Varanisese Qoro, Vika Nakacia, Milika Drugunavanua, and Livia Naidei. The team will also rely on the experience of four returning players—Lavena Cavuru, Ana Maria Naimasi, Mereani Rogosau, and Ilisapeci Delaiwau—to provide stability and guidance.
The Fijiana 7s are set to depart from Nadi International Airport tomorrow, and they will face Australia in their opening match of the Dubai 7s next Saturday, November 30th, at 9:05 PM.
This change in squad is an exciting opportunity for both the new players and the Fijiana team as they look to establish a fresh identity and build for the future. With new talent on board and experienced players to guide them, fans can anticipate a competitive and promising season ahead.
As they embark on this journey, the Fijiana 7s symbolize resilience and the spirit of sport—showing that new beginnings can lead to outstanding achievements.
