Canada draws USA for Singapore 7s

Canada and the USA will collide in the pool stages in the next round of the HSBC Sevens Series. The North Americans have been drawn in Pool B of the Singapore tournament, a difficult group that also contains France and Hong Kong runners-up New Zealand.

Pool D contains Argentina with less intimidating opposition. Australia, Wales, and core status returnees Japan will stand in the way of the Cup finals. Hong Kong champions Fiji are in Pool A along England, Samoa, and Portugal. South Africa, Kenya, Scotland, and Russia comprise Pool C.

The Series returns to Singapore for the first time in a decade starting on April 16. Fiji were the last winners in 2006, though an Asian Sevens Series event was held there in 2013, won by Japan.
