South Africa 7s team out to bounce back

South Africa 7s team out to bounce back

South Africa 7s coach, Neil Powell said all is not lost and they will bounce back this weekend to claim the World Sevens Series title.

Powell said the England Sevens this weekend will be one of the toughest tournaments but they are determined to deliver a much improved performance to win and take home the title.

He has also admitted that they had a weakness of being under pressure when they played Fiji in the quarter-finals of the Scotland Sevens.

Captain, Kyle Brown says as a team they did not perform as well as they wanted to in Scotland but they know their potential, and want to compete for the title.

He said Fiji will be their number one threat this weekend.

Fiji beat South Africa 15-0 in the Scotland Sevens and now has 147 points, South Africa is in second place with 142 points, New Zealand is in third place with 139 points while England is in fourth place with 117 points.

In the England 7s this weekend, Fiji plays Samoa at 9.06pm Saturday, we then take on Argentina at 12.12am Sunday and Canada at 3.18am Sunday.

The cup quarters start at 9.28pm Sunday, the cup semis are at 1.18am Monday while the cup final is at 4.27am Monday.
