A speedy utility back, Ruivadra made his provincial debut for Tailevu at the age of 23 and competed at club level for the Navy team in Suva rugby. His Fiji debut came only two months after first making the "A" team and he was capped three times, all off the bench during the 2010 IRB Pacific Nations Cup.[2]
