The much anticipated – and highly successful – Cape Town Sevens will be one of the dual tournaments alongside Dubai‚ Hamilton‚ Sydney‚ Hong Kong and Paris.

SA Rugby CEO‚ Jurie Roux‚ welcomed the decision taken by World Rugby. “This is a wonderful addition to the already very successful Cape Town Sevens and a massive boost for women’s rugby in South Africa‚” said Roux.

“We are constantly looking at ways of improving the fan experience and I know many of our loyal supporters will be pleasantly surprised when they see the levels of skill and commitment shown by the women. “Apart from that‚ it will create another opportunity for Paul Delport and the Springbok Women’s Sevens team to play together in a tough tournament‚ but also to play in front of their family and friends‚ something that doesn’t happen often.”

Zintle Mpupha‚ Springbok Women’s Sevens captain‚ said: “We’ve all dreamed about playing at home one day‚ so this is really a dream come true for us. We can’t wait to play in front of our own people in Cape Town.”
