The International Rugby Board (IRB) started the Sevens series in 1997 in order to develop an elite-level competition series between rugby nations and develop the Sevens game into a viable commercial product of the IRB. The 2007/08 series encompasses seven cities around the world, with the tournament season beginning in December and running thru June. All international teams are competing for the World Sevens Series Championship title by accumulating points based on their respective finishes in each of these tournaments.

More than 35 nations will compete in the 2007/08 IRB Sevens series.

Sevens Rugby:
Played on the same size field as traditional 15 a-side rugby, sevens rugby is played with only seven players per team. In addition to a keen understanding of how the game is played, pure speed and athleticism are the foundation for the sevens rugby standout. The game is played with non-stop action, thrilling attacks and game saving tackles.

The USA Sevens debuted at the Home Depot Center in Los Angeles, California in February 2004, marking the first time the United States ever hosted an official IRB event of this magnitude and world importance. The tournament is now held at Petco Park in San Diego, California

With 16 Nations, 44 Games and 2 incredible days of action, USA Sevens is fast becoming one of the most exciting sporting events in the United States.
