The 2022 RAN Women's Sevens Qualifiers are a North American rugby sevens tournament that took place at the Thomas Robinson Stadium, Nassau on April 23 and 24, 2022; they were held in The Bahamas for the third time. Owing to the postponement of the 2022 RAN Women's Super Sevens (originally scheduled to be held in Mexico City during February 2022), this event was created specifically to maintain a qualification pathway to the 2022 Rugby World Cup Sevens, with one place awarded to the winner only.[1][2]
