The Cup Semifinal loss against Vaiala Ulalei in Round 3 of Samoa’s National Sevens Series on Saturday ended a winning streak for the Salelologa rugby club, Tama Uli.
Since April 2022, the club’s rugby sevens side has gone undefeated for 35 matches – 34 wins and one draw.
A post on the club’s social media page lists the 35 matches, which ultimately led to 6 Cup Championships in the past six months.
“The semi final exit yesterday ends our winning streak for 2022. Its a tough one for us but we will bounce back”.
