Women's draw announced for Sydney 7s

RUGBY 7s: Australia’s Golden Girls will shine for the first time on home soil with the HSBC Sydney 7s draw released today ahead of the World Series event at Allianz Stadium in Sydney from Friday, February 3.

Fans will get a chance to see the Olympic gold medallists take centre stage on the first day of competition, with Australia having never before hosted a women’s World Series tournament.

It will be a big day of action on day one with the Australian women taking on Brazil and Ireland first up, before a mouthwatering clash with rising power Fijiana at 7pm AEDT on Friday night, in time for those finishing work to join the carnival-like atmosphere.

Qantas Australian Women’s Sevens head coach, Tim Walsh said the team plan on putting on a spectacular show infront of a home crowd.

“After not performing to our ability in Dubai we are looking forward a much improved tournament on home soil, Walsh said.

“The battle lines have been drawn and the stage is set for a huge opening night at Allianz Stadium. We hope to see plenty of Sydneysiders knock off work early and head out to see the gold medal-winning Australian women's sevens team in action.

“All of the Oceania nations have plenty of support coming to Sydney so we’ll need the Aussie fans to come out in force for both the Friday as well as the Saturday.”

The 12-team women’s tournament will be the main event on Friday before the action doubles on Saturday for the first day of men's competition.

The men’s draw will be announced next weekend following the HSBC World Series Sevens event in Wellington.
