The Tropical 7s week, which culminates in the tournament April 2-3, is looking nicely put together, but there are still spots open.

As more regions become more open to training and play, more teams are able to get themselves ready.

While teams are still registering with the being four weeks to go, the tournament is close to finalizing its brackets. Individual players who want to compete but don't have a team to play for are being connected with teams looking for additional players, with the tournament helping everyone get on the field.
