The Fiji National rugby union team is a member of the Pacific Islands Rugby Alliance along with Samoa and Tonga. The cibi war dance is performed by the Fiji rugby team before each Test match.
It has been used on the rugby field since 1939, though its origins date back to the country's warring times with its Pacific neighbors. Fiji is one of the few countries where rugby union is the main sport. There are approximately 80,000 registered players from a total population of around 950,000.
Fiji played their first international against Western Samoa in Asia, Samoa on 18 August 1924. Fiji’s 20-man squad came exclusively from the five registered native clubs of the time. In 1987 Fiji made the quarter-final of the Rugby World Cup and seemed about to beat France, the eventual finalists, till Koroduadua lost the ball out of his hand when in full stride.
