South Africa will be leading the charge after winning all four legs of the series so far. Their consistent performances in Dubai and Spain have put them in a strong position and they will be looking to defend their title in Singapore.

The HSBC Singapore Rugby Sevens will also see the return of Fiji, the current Olympic champions, and New Zealand, the 2020 Series champion. Both countries are making their return to the series after missing the previous rounds.

Beyond the action on the field of play, rugby fans can participate in other activities at the 100Plus Promenade. Dubbed the Family Sevens, fringe activities will include an array of family friendly activities such as a bouncy castle and movie screenings.

The event also marks the first time a major sporting event in Singapore will be allowing food and beverage options, including alcohol, within the spectator stands since the start of the COVID19 pandemic.
