The North American Invitational 7s brackets are already filling up even though there are several months to go.

The demand for well-run rugby tournaments appears to be growing, especially after so many tournaments were canceled in 2020 and 2021. The NAI 7s came back in 2021 with a vengeance and provided plenty of high-level playing opportunities.

The backbone of the tournament is probably the U14 and U16 brackets. That's because the NAI 7s provides competition for these age grades at a level that is enormously difficult to find. 

The Boys brackets are filling up a little quicker, but teams will need to plan even as the NAI 7s expands.
