Fiji Airways Men’s 7s Coach Kolinisau will be burying his mentor, his superhero, and his beloved dad today.

Kolinisau recalls the day he was called to be the Captain of the Fiji 7s side,where he was summoned by his dad to their family home in Cunningham, and was told to sit and make a decision.

His father a former Military personnel and the Founder of the Kingdom Ambassador’s International Fellowship, Reverend Tuikoro Kolinisau asked him whether he wanted to follow him to God's Kingdom or for him to continue on his worldly journey.

Coach Kolinisau decided to follow his dad so he shipshaped his life according to the word of God and has never regretted it.

Kolinisau arrived from Vancouver with the Fiji sevens team after losing to South Africa in the cup semi-finals of the Vancouver 7s 12-10, and will attend the church service and burial at the Vatuwaqa cemetery today.
