GRR: PR 7s
Portland, Ore.(PR7s Release) – Premier Rugby Sevens (PR7) set a new standard at the 2024 PR7s All-Star Tournament at Providence Park on Nov. 17, surpassing historical benchmarks for the competition and elevating rugby in North America.
A new era begins for the USA women’s 7s team tonight as they take on Great Britain, Spain, and France between midnight and 750AM ET.
As expected, several veterans from the last Olympic cycle are taking time off either because of nagging injuries, retirement, or just some time off.
Already it's clear that the PR7s All-Star Tournament was a massive success.
Putting PR7s All-Stars up against a provisional USA team was an important test for all of those players. This was especially true given that the PR7s All-Stars also had USA hopefuls on their squads.
For the men's teams, new USA Coach Simon Amor got a chance to see how young players competed.
PORTLAND, Ore. — In front of an electrified crowd at Providence Park, rugby’s elite athletes and emerging stars delivered a spectacle of speed, power, and precision at Sunday’s PR7s All-Star Tournament. For 19 Olympians returning to U.S. soil after competing in Paris, the event was a triumphant showcase—and they did not disappoint.
USA Olympic star Spiff Sedrick may be in injury rehab but that doesn't mean she's exuded from being part of Sunday's PR7s All-Star Tournament.
The player who ran the length of the field in Paris to secure a Bronze Medal for the USA will be a sideline reporter and in-booth announcer for the All-Star event and this week she's been doing media interviews all around Portland.
