The Digicel Fiji 7s Coach Waisale Serevi will switch codes to play for Fiji UK in the Carnegie Floodlit Nines tournament at Headingley next Wednesday.

Fiji UK Manager Mike Ratu says Serevi with 39 caps to his name, has agreed to play for them and it's a dream come true for his players.

Serevi said that Nines rugby is very exciting and the fans will be in for a real treat. Fiji UK have been drawn against Wakefield in the first round.

Serevi, who was recently awarded a sport science honorary doctorate by Leeds Metropolitan University, will also be a guest at next week's Carnegie Challenge Cup final at Wembley.
