GRR: National Teams
USA Women's 7s team Head Coach Emilie Bydwell can look at her squad for this weekend's Vancouver 7s and see eight players who have played in four or fewer tournaments.
It is an inexperienced team, but there is something familiar about it, too. The cultural buy-in of the new players, said Bydwell, has been outstanding.
The USA Men's 7s team has a ton of work to do to climb out of 11th on the SVNS World Series and get into the Top eight.
Head Coach Simon Amor must have seen something he liked as he has made just one change from the team that played in Perth—Pita Vi replaces David Still III.
This week sees the next USA Rugby Talent ID camp held at the Rhinos Rugby High-Performance facility in San Clemente, Calif.
This camp will be somewhat unique in that Rhinos has some additional facilities on offer.
International 7s coaches talk a lot about fitness, but that word can mean a lot of things.
It was a rough Day Two for the USA teams in Perth.
The USA women lost twice, once to a very much in-form Canada to wrap up pool play 21-7, and then 19-7 to France.
As we have written before, France has often been the USA's toughest opponent.
