Flying Fijians flyhalf Ben Volavola says it is a massive privilege to be part of a squad that works so hard and has so much potential.

In an interview with Fijivillage, Volavola says it is a  blessing to be part of the team because there are people who miss out. 

Volavola who now plays for Racing 92 in the Top 14 competition in France says he has really enjoyed watching local players pushing for starting positions in the team and that has helped improve the team’s collective strength.

He plays alongside Leone Nakarawa, Virimi Vakatawa and Joe Rokocoko at Racing 92.

Volavola says playing the Maori All blacks is a great start to their campaign.

The Flying Fijians camp has tested the team’s commitment, fitness and endurance and Volavola says he is grateful for the different characters in the team that make those funny moments happen during a hard day or where something gets tense.

The Fiji Airways Flying Fijians play the Maori All Blacks at 3pm this Saturday at the ANZ Stadium and you can catch the live commentary of the match on our sister station, Viti FM.
