The Fiji Water Flying Fijians are planning a Test match against Scotland, tentatively scheduled for July 12, 2025, at the HFC Bank Stadium in Suva. The Fiji Rugby Union has confirmed that discussions are ongoing with both Scotland Rugby Union and Rugby Australia regarding these matches. A formal announcement will be detailed once agreements are finalized.

If confirmed, this match will mark Scotland’s first visit to Fiji since 2017, a notable year in which the Flying Fijians achieved a closely contested 27-22 victory at home. Historically, Fiji has celebrated significant wins over Scotland, including a remarkable 51-26 victory during their encounter in 1998. Previous matches have seen both teams trading victories, creating a backdrop of fierce competition and anticipation for the upcoming clash.

Additionally, talks are also underway for a potential Test match against the Australian Wallabies shortly before the match with Scotland, which presents an action-packed summer for Fiji Rugby. They are also scheduled to face France in November at Stade de France in Paris, further highlighting a busy rugby calendar ahead.

The emphasis on nurturing international relationships through sport remains pivotal, as Fiji seeks to enhance its rugby presence on the global stage. The potential Scotland match is more than just a sporting event; it offers an opportunity for cultural exchange and engagement between nations through the shared experience of rugby.

As Fiji prepares for these anticipated encounters, fans can look forward to showcasing their talents and rich rugby heritage, which continues to cement their position as a competitive force in the sport. The excitement surrounding these fixtures reflects a positive trend in international rugby relations, highlighting the game’s role in bringing people and cultures together.
