Dramatic Comeback Sees USA Men Qualify for Next Season's Top SVNS Tier

Don't focus on moving to SVNS 1, don't focus on moving to SVNS 1, don't focus on moving to SVNS 1 ...

A watched pot never boils and the USA men's 7s team could not watch the pot when it came to garnering promotion to the top tier of the SVNS World Series for 2026-27. What they needed to do was focus on each performance.

Astonishing Day for USA Men Gives Them Hope

Going into the final SVNS tournament in Bordeaux this weekend the USA men's team sat 11th, albeit an 11th virtually tied with 10th-place Germany.

If you want to make it to SVNS 1, you need to finish in the top 8, and to do that, in the end, it meant the Eagles need to finish nine points higher than Kenya or France (and it doesn't matter which).
