Dreams have come true for 21-year-old Mosese Naura after being selected by the Fiji Airways Men's National 7s coach, Osea Kolinisau to join the 13-member side for the Vancouver 7s next week.
Naura who hails from Navatusila in Navosa, joined the national extended squad after a standout performance with the Seattle Barbarians at the Coral Coast 7s a month ago as he outpaced Fijian Drua winger Taniela Rakuro.
Kolinisau has also recalled former captain Jeremaia Matana and Waisea Nacuqu in his 13-member squad, with Suliano Volivoli missing out on this tour.
The national side left early this morning for Vancouver.
The final 13-member squad include Joji Nasova, Sevuloni Mocenacagi, Vuiviyawa Naduvalo, Terio Veilawa, Joseva Talacolo, Ratu Filipe Sauturaga, George Bose, Ilikimi Torosi, Sakiusa Siqila and Tira Wilagi.
