Team USA - Rugby Sevens

Too bad Lacrosse Sixes and Rugby Sevens can't team up... *groan*

Our Women took Bronze for the first time this year, after finishing fourth three times.  We're in third in the overall standings.   and  have been 1-2 each time.  We'll see how the end of the season goes!

 

Our Men came in 2nd in the first SVNS 2 tourney a few weeks ago.  They have two more the last two weekends of this month.  Hope we can get promoted (though not sure exactly how to get promoted back to the top tier SVNS...will research more later).

Looks like top 4 of 6 get promoted.

From what I see, I think that means that the top 4 get to compete with the Top 8 teams in SVNS in the three WCh events at the end of the season.  I think then the Top 8 after that event stay in (or are promoted to) SVNS, with the last 4 being in SVNS 2 the next year.  Source: 'It’s then a three-tournament shootout for not only the overall World Championship crown, but more importantly, top-eight survival next season.' from https://www.svns.com/en/news/1038945/how-new-look-hsbc-svns-set-up-has-changed-the-game

 

With that said, I do think our men and our women should be in those last three comps.
