Tola 7s

What is the TOLA 7s Series?

TOLA was started in 2009 by a few different teams and was created to promote a 7s Series in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Arkansas. The series is semi-competitive but also allows for social teams to participate.  Late in 2009, a women’s bracket was added and so this series is bigger and better than ever before! We think the best part of the series is that we get to travel to fun rugby tournaments, meet new people and the points system is designed to make the Series fun and competitive.

UPDATE 4/17: It is with great pleasure that I introduce David Yeoman and co-chair for the 2011 TOLA Sevens Series. Due to feedback we have received from many of the participants, we are going to experiment with a condensed season by moving the finals to the last week of July.
