The Fiji Airways Fijiana 7s team is gearing up for an exhilarating new season, having unveiled an extended squad that showcases a blend of experienced players and emerging talents as they prepare for the World Sevens Series. Retaining key athletes from last year’s roster, such as Reapi Ulunisau, Ana Naimasi, Ilisapeci Delaiwau, and Adi Vani Buleki, the team looks to leverage their veteran experience as they embark on their journey.
This season’s squad also brings in several promising young players, affording them the invaluable opportunity to train alongside the veterans. This strategic approach highlights the Fijiana 7s’ commitment to nurturing new talent while simultaneously drawing on the skills and leadership of seasoned members, creating a harmonious and robust team dynamic.
The Fijiana 7s is set to commence pre-season training soon, with the goal of securing a top-ranking position in the women’s World Sevens Series. Following a less-than-satisfactory performance at the Paris Olympic Games, the upcoming season represents a chance for redemption and development for the team.
The new squad list consists of notable players including Lavena Cavuru, Sesenieli Donu, Ana Naimasi, Adimereani Rogosau, Ilisapeci Delaiwau, Mere Vocevoce, Sera Bolatini, Silika Qalo, Vika Nakacia, Kelera Luvu, Milika Drugunavanua, Michell Seruvatu, Mere Navue, Verenaisi Ditavutu, Mereula Torooti, Adita Milinia, Reapi Ulunisau, Varasika Tukana, Losana Kuriibua, Atelaite Ralivanawa, and Vani Buleki.
As this new chapter begins, fans can anticipate an energetic and passionate display from the Fijiana 7s, as they strive to tackle new challenges and firmly establish themselves in the competitive realm of women’s rugby. The combination of youthful enthusiasm and valuable experience fosters a promising outlook for a successful season ahead, making this an exciting time for supporters and players alike.
