Being consistent throughout the three days of the tournament is key for us and is also the key to winning a tournament.

Those were the words of Fiji Airways Men’s National 7s coach Ben Gollings as they prepare for the HSBC Vancouver 7s that kicks off this Friday.

Gollings says they are always looking to knock these tournaments over and it is exciting to see that they are in a really tough pool at the Vancouver 7s this weekend.

He says they have Argentina in their pool who has been very consistent throughout the past few tournaments but their main focus is to take out their pool first and then we set their sights on the finals.

The Fiji Men’s 7s team will take on Spain at 11.20am Friday in their first match, they will then play Canada at 4.44pm Friday before taking on Argentina at 10.33am Saturday in their last pool match.

The men’s cup quarter finals will kick off at 2.22pm Saturday, the cup semi finals will kick off at 8.43am Sunday and the cup final will be at 1.23pm Sunday.

The Fiji Airways Fijiana 7s will take on the USA at 7.30am Friday in their first match, they will then play Australia at 12.46pm Friday before playing Japan at 6.15am Saturday in their final pool match.

The women’s quarter finals will kick off at 11.55am Saturday, the semi finals will kick off at 7.59am Sunday and the final will be at 12.43pm Sunday.
