Fiji Sevens
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Fiji Sevens, also known as the Suva Sevens is an international rugby union sevens tournament held at the National Stadium in Suva, Fiji. It was a part of the Sevens World Series in 2000, but in the wake of the Fijian coup d'état later that year, the tournament was dropped from the World circuit for the following season.
