World Rugby Sevens Series Update Brought to you by HSBC and UCB.

This week:The final event of the season, from Twickenham, the London Sevens!



1st place: Scotland
2nd place: England
3rd place: Canada

Scotland defends their title beating the hosts in the final. It is a good tournament for Canada taking the bronze.



How did Canada do?

Win vs Fiji 22-19
Loss vs NZ 19-14
Win vs Japan 28-14
Win vs Argentina 28-7
Loss vs England 24-5
Win vs USA 22-19

Overall: 3rd place

Canada got off to a great start upsetting Fiji and then coming close against the Kiwis. They took the momentum into day 2 for a third place finish.

2016/2017 Overall Standings

1. South Africa
2. England
3. Fiji
...
8. Canada

That is it for this year's series which was dominated by the South Africans who won half the events. It was a decent year for Canada especially after their slow start and a great improvement from a disappointing 13th place last season.
