The Pacific Tyees talented team made up of young players from Canada's National 7's side and youth National Teams defeated the Howlers 17 - 7 at the CFL half time game between Lions and Roughriders in Vancouver on June 22, 2011 in front of some 25,000 fans.

The Howlers along with everyone he played against and all the fans watching had the privilege to witness Fiji's legendary "magician" Waisale Serevi who is considered by most the greatest 7s player in the history of the game. "Vinaka" Serevi for letting us witness greatness!
