The Singapore 7s will see all 16 men’s core teams compete for the first time in the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series this year as Fiji, New Zealand and Samoa return to action.

South Africa lead the Series with 88 points after victory in all four rounds so far, followed by Argentina in second on 70 points and Australia lying third with 66 point.

Singapore is the fifth out of nine rounds in the 2022 Series, and was last played in 2019 when South Africa came from 19-0 down to overcome Fiji 20-19 in the final.

Fiji will meet Ireland in their first match on Saturday at 2.22pm.

They will then face France at 5.06pm Saturday in their second match and play Japan at 8.22pm Saturday in their final pool match.
