The bidding for the right to host a 2018 Red River Rugby Conference (RRRC) 7s Qualifying Tournament has opened. This year the 7s committee has determined that only three tournaments are needed. The USA Rugby Performance Game Board has also announced an East & West Super Qualifier on the men’s competition that will add optional opportunities for teams to qualify for USA Rugby Club 7s.
The Austin Huns will host the first tournament in partnership with their existing Bloodfest 7s tournament on June 23. The other two qualifier weekends are July 14 and 28. The men’s super qualifiers are 6/30. Unlike years past we are leaving locations open in order to have the most clubs apply to host as possible.
If your club is interested in hosting a RRRC 7s qualifier, please complete the host application by April 30, 2018. We would like to encourage teams to co-host TOLA tournaments with the RRRC events for a festival type event and more team attendance.
Qualifier Dates:
- June 23 – Bloodfest 7s (Austin, TX)
- July 14 – OPEN
- July 28 – OPEN
