The first of the 16 rugby teams have been officially welcomed to the Rugby World Cup in the United Kingdom.

Fiji has received a warm welcome at the historic Hampton Palace Court in Surrey this morning.

Captain Akapusi Qera said his team wants to cause some upsets in the pool stages where they take on England, Australia, Wales and Uruguay.

Qera said they are not making up the numbers in the World Cup.

The official uniform includes some Fijian flare too with the team decked out in bright green.

The captain said they are embracing the bold look.

Fiji will meet England in the opening match of the RWC at 7am next Saturday.
