Men’s Eagles 7s to hold intra-squad series in December

The USA Men’s Eagles Sevens program will look to make up for lost time by holding in intra-squad competition over two weekends in December. Dubbed the Golden Eagles Showdown Series, there will be two games each on December 4, 5, 11, and 12 at the Elite Athlete Training Center in Chula Vista.

With the World Sevens Series on an indefinite hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, opportunities for competitive rugby have been few and far between since March. Preparations remain on track for the Tokyo Olympics but it remains unclear when or even if any further tournaments will take place before the shortened code’s highest profile event.

Meanwhile the Women’s Eagles Sevens will play one match on December 4 before their holiday break. All matches will be streamed live with details to be confirmed prior to the series.
