The Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s will be out to redeem themselves this weekend at the Cape Town 7s after falling short yet again at the Dubai 7s last weekend.

After failing to win yet another tournament last weekend, making it a 12th tournament losing streak, the team will surely want to turn things around this weekend and break the streak.

The team finished 4th in last weekend’s Dubai 7s after losing to New Zealand in the 3rd/4th place playoff.

Fiji will take on France at 8.28pm Saturday in their first pool match, they will then take on Spain at 11.06pm Saturday before taking on Argentina at 4.50am Sunday in their final pool match.

The cup quarter finals will kick off at 8.34pm Sunday, the semi finals will start at 12.56am Monday and the cup final will be at 5.23am Sunday.

Meanwhile, the Fijiana 7s side will play Japan at 7.22pm Saturday in their first pool match, they will then play Spain at 9.34pm Saturday before playing Australia at 1.54am Sunday in their last pool match.

The Women’s cup quarter finals will start at 7pm Sunday, the semi finals will be at 12.12am Sunday and the women’s cup final will kick off at 4.43am Sunday.
