“Unyielding Spirit: Sesenieli Donu’s Path from Injury to Olympic Hopeful”.

The journey of return for Sesenieli Donu.

It had been a difficult road for Sesenieli Donu of Fiji Airways Fijiana 7 to regain her place in the squad following a serious knee injury sustained during the Women’s World Cup in 2022. For Donu, the injury—which necessitated surgery—was the start of a difficult chapter. Donu stated, “My goal is to improve my fitness so I can heal from my knee injury.” “I gained weight after my operation, and my recuperation took a long time. I was then ordered to report for training. Donu stated she had numerous obstacles while she was recovering.

“When it was taking a long time for me to recover from some challenges, there were times when I gave up and lost hope.” “I prayed for it and had the faith to keep going with my rehabilitation, and now I’m getting ready for the Olympics and hoping to get a spot too,” the woman stated. The 28-year-old claimed that she never gave up because of her sister. “My sister is my inspiration; it’s just the two of us. She has therefore always pushed me. “We need to collaborate and have effective communication on the field, as Coach has reminded us,” the player stated.

Donu continued, saying that during her time in treatment, she kept herself motivated by a slogan. “Remain committed to your dream. This has enabled me to persevere through my most trying times. Donu, who competed in the 2020 Olympics, hopes to be included in Coach Saiasi Fuli’s final 15 once more. On the 28th of this month, the Women’s Rugby 7’s Competition at the Olympic Games in Paris will get underway.
