The fiftth round and the halfway point of the 2023 HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series takes place this weekend in Vancouver, Canada.
The Black Ferns three successive Cup final victories have put them in a commanding position as they chase a seventh Series title and a ticket to Paris. If they are able to secure 49 points from the next three tournaments including this stop in Vancouver, then they would be guaranteed to finish the season as champions.
The Black Ferns Sevens’ hopes of automatic Olympic qualification appear even rosier. The Series leaders enjoy a 26-point lead over fifth-placed Ireland and are 42 points better off than Fiji and Great Britain, in sixth and seventh respectively.
Australia are level with the USA on 66 points, 14 points ahead of France and Ireland and 30 points clear of Fiji and Great Britain.
All men’s and women’s teams will play one pool match on Friday with the two remaining matches played on Saturday with the knockout stages bringing the curtain down on the tournament on Sunday. This is the new ‘Super Session’ format ahead of the 2020 Olympics.
