The Fiji Airways 7’s team is aiming to set a platform in the 2017-18 World Rugby Sevens Series, which kicks off in Dubai next month.

7’s captain, Jerry Tuwai says they have learnt from last year after finishing third in the standings.

“Last year was a learning platform for us and we know our weaknesses and what could be done better so we can be consistent on and off the field. We have some new boys in the team and right now it’s all about Dubai and Cape Town.”
