Two of the most important men behind the success of our Gold Medal winning 7s team, Chris Cracknell and the Jeremy Manning will be leaving our shores today with the recognition of the Officer of the Order of Fiji.
These men were the backbone of the Fiji 7's team during the preparation and throughout the Rio Olympics.
Fijiana Coach Chris Cracknell says his more than happy to be part of the Fiji team throughout the journey to Rio and back.
Cracknell says he has not made any decision yet on what his going to do next but his definitely going home to spend time with family.
He says he will want to come back one day to continue the legacy that has been made by our sevens heroes.
