The competition features the world's top 16 national teams such as perennial crowd favourites Fiji along with heavyweights New Zealand, Australia and France.
Rugby 7’s will make an Olympic debut in Brazil next year and is sure to become an instant hit being a fast, high intensity and viewing friendly sport.
