GRR: LA 7s
The World Sevens Series is back with the Hamilton 7s and another change in the format.
Instead of sending the top two teams from each pool to the quarterfinals, only the pool winners will go on to the Cup Semis.
Changing the formats—earlier the new plan had teams that lost in the quarterfinals get no more games—is so men and women can fit in the same venue at the same time.
A large number of drinking and eating establishments along the beaches in Los Angeles will be hosting parties during the LA 7s February 29-March 1.
SIngle-Day tickets are now available for the LA 7s February 29 to March 1 at The Dig—Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, Calif.
There are a variety of seat types still available and fans will have the festival right on their doorstep, with music, food, and a relaxed party atmosphere throughout the stadium.
Player welfare is a big part of the new LA 7s at Dignity Health Sports Park, and several changes are going to make the event more popular with the players as a whole.
1. The field is grass and full width, something the USA stop on the Sevens World Series hasn’t had since 2009.
Waiting until the last minute to buy your LA 7s tickets might be a mistake warns Tournament Director Dan Lyle.
Speaking during an interview this week at The Dig (Dignity Health Sports Park), Lyle acknowledged that the stadium is smaller than Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas, and fans have to be prepared for that.
