The Vodafone Fiji 7s side has all but secured an Olympic Games qualification spot.

With three tournaments remaining in the World Sevens Series, the Ben Ryan coached side sits on second spot on the points table with 108.

Fiji has won three cup titles, South Africa has claimed two with New Zealand winning its lone title on home soil at the Wellington 7s.

All three teams look set to confirm qualification sooner rather than later, while Australia and England appear to be locked in battle for the fourth spot.

Fiji has won the Gold Coast, Las Vegas and Hong Kong tournaments so far this season.

The top four teams at the end of the World Sevens Series automatically qualify for the Rio Olympic Games next year.

Meanwhile in the Tokyo 7s this weekend, Fiji takes on Wales at 1pm on Saturday, Hong Kong at 4.18pm and England at 8.30pm.

The quarter-finals, semi-finals and finals will be played on Sunday.

You can watch the Tokyo 7s live on FBC TV and catch live radio commentaries on BULA FM.
