Fraser Coast Rugby 7s Festival

PNG Palm workers dominate 7s rugby festival

PALM scheme workers from Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Vanuatu, and Papua New Guinea, including a First Nations Australian side, showcased their rugby prowess in a spirited competition in Hervey Bay on Saturday.

The event was not just about sports; it was a cultural exchange as teams engaged in traditional war dances and anthem performances, highlighting the deep people-to-people connections between Australia and the Pacific.
