Not since 2018 in Sydney have both our men’s and women’s Sevens teams won the HSBC 7s Round. This time in Valladolid, Spain, the penultimate round, ahead of Bordeaux next weekend, both our sides picked up Gold Medals. Beating the Top of the Table Blitzboks 26-19 shows a commitment our men’s team has been lacking. We’ve come to expect our women to do well, and their 27-14 win over the USA in the final, without star player Maddie Levi, was scintillating, putting them on top of their Table, leapfrogging New Zealand.
