GRR: USA Men 7s
While we have heard the big BIG news about World Rugby’s new SVNS branding and the return of the LA 7s (SVNS LAX!), before we get caught up in all that the USA Men’s 7s team has two pretty important tournaments to deal with.
The Golden Eagles Association has announced that former USA 7s and 15s star Danny Barrett has been selected as the new Executive Director of their Eagles Sevens support group.
While the USA Men's 7s team has some immediate concerns this summer, namely qualifying for the 2024 Olympics, there has to still be an eye toward the future.
The 7s program Development Camp brought in 10 players who have a shot at the USA team in the future. They aren't the only players who are in contention, however.
Which USA 7s team will we be watching in August at the Olympic Qualifiers in Langford BC?
Will it be the team that made the top three early in the World Series? Or will it be the team that crash-landed to three bottom four finishes in the last six World Series tournaments?
The HSBC World Series finishes off for the USA this weekend with not much good stuff to focus on.
