The All Blacks Sevens and Black Ferns Sevens teams will take their Olympic preparation to Auckland this week as they host Australia.

With Trans-Tasman travel back on the cards, both teams will play six matches against their Australian counterparts in what will prove to be a critical international competition as the Olympics loom.

The teams will play at Grammar TEC’s Orakei Domain tonight and Sunday, while tomorrow's matches will be part of a blockbusting Trans-Tasman rugby festival at Eden Park alongside the Blues vs Waratahs Super Rugby Trans-Tasman match.

Both the All Blacks Sevens and the Black Ferns Sevens were in stellar form in the World Series in 2020 before COVID-19 saw a halt in international rugby and the Series were brought to a premature end.

Having led the Series to that point, both teams were crowned World Series champions.

The Tokyo Olympic Games will be held from the 23rd of July to the 8th of August.
