Waisale Tikoisolomoni Serevi (born 20 May 1968 in Suva, Fiji) is a former Fijian rugby union player and coach. Although he played fifteen-a-side rugby throughout his playing career, Serevi is most notable for his achievements in rugby sevens. He is widely considered one of the greatest rugby players ever, especially in the game of sevens. In the 15-man game, he played for Fiji, as well as the Mitsubishi, Leicester, Stade Montois, Stade Bordelais and Staines rugby teams. His sevens career started in 1989, when he played for Fiji at the Hong Kong tournament. In 2005 after winning the 2005 Rugby World Cup Sevens Serevi was appointed the Fiji Sevens team's coach. He coached Fiji to the 2005-06 World Sevens Series victory – the first time the series was not won by New Zealand. For the full article, click here.
