FIJI is blessed with a lot of young rugby 7s talents which was on display at the home of rugby in Nadroga for the past two days.

Hundreds of young rugby players from under-13 to U19 showcased their talents in their quest to win the top awards on offer at the Cuvu Collegian Rugby 7s Festival.

The famous Waisale Serevi goosestep, the trademark Pio Tuwai off-load, the Jasa Veremalua one-handed ball handling and the trademark Fijian flair were re-lived by these youngsters which added flavour to the game.

Today, the competition is expected to move up another notch as the big boys battle in their quest to chase their rugby dreams.
