Former Fiji Airways Fijiana 7s utility back Timaima Ravisa has signed for Stade Rennais Rugby in the French Elite 1 competition for the 2023-2024 season.

While making the announcement, Ravisa’s rugby agency Plaise Inc. says Ravisa has seamlessly integrated herself within her new club and is thoroughly enjoying the enthralling adventures that lie ahead.

The Agency says from relishing the delectable cuisine to immersing herself in the warmth and kindness of the people, Ravisa has embraced each moment.

They say the nippy player has enthusiastically embraced the opportunity to learn the “language of love,” while basking in the breathtaking allure of her picturesque new home in France.

The 35-year-old has a really impressive sports resume as not only did she play rugby union, but also played rugby league.

Ravisa was part of the Fijiana 7s team at the Rio Olympics in 2016 and signed up with the NZ Warriors in 2019 for the NRL Women’s Premiership where she played 2 matches.

She also represented the Fiji Bulikula in their test match against PNG that same year.

Ravisa later switched back to rugby union and represented the Fijiana 15s at the Women’s Rugby World Cup in 2021 before she was signed up by the Rooster Chicken Fijiana Drua for the 2022 Super W season where she also helped them win the title.
