The Black Ferns 7s and All Blacks 7s teams will be looking to defend the HSBC Hamilton 7s titles this weekend.

This year’s Hamilton 7s will be an exciting event as it will return to the FMG Stadium in Waikato after a lapse of 3 years, but sadly will also be the last.

The two home sides will be looking to farewell this tournament on a high note.

The All Blacks 7s head into this tournament sitting in 3rd place in the overall standings behind current leaders Samoa and South Africa while the Black Ferns 7s are currently 2nd behind leaders Australia in the women’s division.

Meanwhile, Fiji will play France at 8.32am Saturday in their first pool match, they will then take on Kenya at 12.00pm Saturday, before playing Samoa in their final pool match at 3.06pm Saturday.

The cup quarter finals will start at 9.58am Sunday, the semi finals will begin at 1.48pm Sunday, and the final will be played at 6.56pm Sunday.
