24 players now in the Team Fiji 7s squad to Commonwealth Games in April

24 players are now in the Team Fiji 7s squad to the Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast in April.

This has been confirmed to Fijivillage by the Team Fiji Chef De Mission to the Commonwealth Games, Patrick Bower. 

Bower says they cannot reveal the names of these 24 players.

FASANOC received the initial list last year and it includes local and overseas players but no names have been confirmed yet.

The list includes some players in the current World Sevens Series squad like Eroni Sau, Kalione Nasoko, Mesulame Kunavula, Jerry Tuwai, Waisea Nacuqu, Amenoni Nasilasila, Sevuloni Mocenacagi, Vatemo Ravouvou and Jasa Veremalua.

It also includes overseas players like Osea Kolinisau, Leone Nakarawa, Semi Radradra, Josua Tuisova, Semi Kunatani and Nikola Matawalu.

Bower says they will only take 13 players to the Commonwealth Games and the final team will be selected after going through the Selection Justification Commission.

The Team Fiji Commonwealth Games briefing will be held this Sunday. 

The Fiji 7s team will face Wales, Uganda and Sri Lanka in the Commonwealth Games 7s competition.

The 2018 Commonwealth Games 7s will be held from the 13th to the 15th of April.
