The Suva 7's rugby team is the 2009 Tahiti Nui 7's champion after defeating New Zealand Legend 19-17 in the final.

The Kalisito Tunaulu coached side had to play catch up rugby after New Zealand led 10-nil at halftime.

At the start of the second half, New Zealand increased their lead to 17-nil before Suva came back with 3 tries to Aminisitai Niukula, Patrick Osbourne and Sakenasa Aca.

Two of Suva's tries were converted for the capital side to walk away $10,000 dollars richer.

Suva is using this trip as their build up to their International 7's next year where they have qualified together with Ratu Filise as the first two local teams to have booked their spot.
