Based out of Seattle, Washington, Serevi Rugby hosted a Seven’s Camp for the Senior National at the TN Tatem School Field.
Waisale Serevi who had a brilliant, 21-year international career playing international rugby for Fiji and various professional rugby clubs around the world, was on hand to give the players from Bermuda encouragement and advice.
Serevi Rugby and the Bermuda Rugby Football Union (BRFU) have teamed up to in this venture to bring more knowledge of the Seven’s game to Bermuda.
Serevi said, “I’m fresh off our U.S. Serevi Academy in San Diego, where I trained 60 of America’s top young Sevens athletes with the help of New Zealand Sevens’ Coach Gordon Tietjens and Argentine great Santiago Gomez Cora. On the heels of that successful experience, it made sense to consider the many programming requests we receive from rugby unions around the world. Bermuda made a logical first stop on multiple levels: a motivated partner with a well-crafted financial model, relative proximity to Seattle, and well defined goals. We’re dedicated to growing the game of rugby by inspiring and instructing a new swath of youth players. We’re thankful for the opportunity to do this in Bermuda and can’t wait to touch down.”
