Kaiviti Silktails Chairman Petero Civoniceva says they are excited after their robust centre Paula Nayacakalou was selected in the 13-member squad for the Fiji Airways National team for the Hong Kong 7s next weekend.

Civoniceva says they are proud of Paula’s selection and the incredible achievement from the man of Naqarani in Rewa.

He says it's a testament to his hard work, diligence and dedication, especially in his time this year as one of their top Kaiviti Silktails players.

Nayacakalou is amongst the three new players who will be making their World Sevens Series debut with Tira Welagi and Josevani Soro.

Meanwhile, Fiji is pooled with USA, Spain and Japan.

The Hong Kong 7s will be held from next Friday to Sunday.
