There will be a new structure introduced in the sevens series from this year.

The men's and women's World Rugby Sevens Series will feature gold, silver and bronze medals for the first time.

The traditional Cup, Plate, Bowl and Shield winners format on the men's series will be replaced by two competitions.

The top two teams in each pool will progress to the Cup competition and the chance to win a gold medal, while lower ranked teams will contest a new Challenge Trophy competition.

The Vodafone Fiji 7s team will play their first game against Canada at 7.52pm next Friday and they will face Wales at 11.47pm.

They will play their final pool match against Argentina at 4.48am next Saturday.

The Cup quarters start at 8pm next Saturday, the Cup semis start at 1.41am next Sunday while the Final kicks off at 4.33am Sunday.
