The Fiji Airways National 7s team has left our shores this morning with a focus on winning the Toulouse and London 7s tournaments.

Jerry Tuwai’s addition to the squad will bring a different dynamic to the team.

Coach Ben Gollings says the competition level within the group has been high and it is important to select the best players for the last two legs before the season wraps up in London.

The side is hoping to finish high in both of these tournaments to earn a direct qualification to the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.

Fiji’s first match in the Toulouse 7s is against the USA at 12.57am next Saturday, they play South Africa at 7.03am next Saturday and battle France at 12.11am Sunday in their final pool game.

The cup quarter-finals will start at 3.16am Sunday, the cup semi-finals will begin at 11.32pm Sunday and the cup final will be held at 3.56am on the 15th of this month.

The London 7s will be held on the 20th and 21st of this month.
