Sevens invited to series


HARARE - Sevens rugby is slowly creeping into the world's leading International Rugby Board's Sevens Tournament series, the IRB Sevens World Series, after being invited to the Hong Kong edition, for the first time.
In the past three years Zimbabwe, who are ranked second in Africa, have been

invited to two tournaments – in Dubai and George, South Africa.
Bruce Hobson, the Zimbabwe Rugby Union president said the Cheetahs had received three invitations for the 7’s world series in the 2007/2008 series.
“It’s a huge development for us because we have over the year been participating in two tournaments (Dubai and George). We have also been invited to the Hong Kong. This is a good development because the major tournaments on the sevens schedule are the Dubai and Hong Kong tournaments,” Hobson said. – CAJ News
