The qualifying window for the 2024 Paris Olympics is now open in several sports. The Langford-based Canadian men’s and women’s rugby sevens teams began their qualifying process for Paris 2024 by going 1-2 on the opening day of the Dubai Sevens on Friday.
The Canadian women opened in Dubai with a 12-7 loss to a U.S. team that it will eventually likely need to beat at some point on the road to Paris. Veteran Bianca Farella scored the Canadian try. That was followed by a 33-0 loss to Australia and a 26-10 victory over China as veteran Charity Williams, returning from a near year-long injury, scored two tries and University of Victoria Vikes star Krissy Scurfield one try.
White replaced Henry Paul as interim head coach last month. Paul departed the position after guiding Canada to the quarter-finals of the Tokyo Olympics last year and the quarter-finals of the 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games this year. “The future is bright for this young developing side and I look forward to watching the game we all love continue to flourish in Canada,” said Paul.
