Rugby Americas North Sevens

(Redirected from NACRA Sevens)

The Rugby Americas North Sevens is the rugby sevens competition for the confederation of North American and Caribbean rugby. It periodically serves as the regional qualifying competition for the World Cup Sevens and the Rugby sevens at the Olympics. In the early years of the competition the tier two teams from North America (Canada, United States) did not always participate or only sent representative sides outside of tournaments for World Cup qualification (2012) or Olympic qualification (2015).[1]
