Dual Olympic Gold medallist Jerry Tuwai is likely to become the Assistant Coach for the Fiji Airways Fijiana 7s side.
Fiji Rugby Union Interim Chair Peter Mazey says they are hoping that the 34-year-old will finalise his contract today to become the Assistant Coach for the Fijiana 7s.
He says they want the women’s team to win gold at the Olympic Games since the men’s side has already won gold in two consecutive Olympic Games.
Mazey says Tuwai is still employed with the Fiji Rugby Union.
