As the Cape Town 7s tournament kicks off today, the Fiji Airways National Men's and Women's teams are optimistic about a good outing and are hoping for a better finish this weekend.
Earlier this week Fiji Men's coach Ben Gollings revealed the team's goal of finishing the year on a high note and that starts today.
Both teams will be facing uphill battles in their pool games, but one thing is for sure, they will want to prove themselves this weekend.
