NYC Sevens welcomes the Emerald Isle's finest
NYC Sevens welcomes the Emerald Isle's finest as Ireland joins the line-up! Get ready for a dose of Irish charm and some serious rugby skills as the team in green take on the world's best.
The introduction of Ireland builds on the buzz seen last week following the USA team announcement. While the USA may have the advantage of playing on home soil, the Irish won't be short on support, with thousands of their Big Apple based fans expected at Red Bull Arena on July 15th.
Head Coach James Topping shared his excitement about the upcoming event, saying,
"We are excited to be taking part in the inaugural NYC Sevens this summer. This new and unique tournament will help bring our game to a wide range of new audiences and with plenty of Irish support expected in Manhattan in July, it is a brilliant opportunity for our squad to be exposed to high-level competition ahead of the 2024 HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series season."
The fast-paced, action-packed nature of Rugby Sevens makes it incredibly exciting to watch, and at NYC Sevens the stakes have never been higher. With a whopping $1 MILLION prize pot on the line, this is the biggest prize ever offered in Rugby Sevens' history. Expect the teams to be pushing themselves to the limit in a bid to claim the prize money and all the glory that comes with it.
The pressure is on for all eight teams, including USA, Australia, New Zealand, Kenya, Fiji, France, and South Africa, as they do battle to be crowned the first-ever NYC Sevens champions.
So, what are you waiting for? Reserve your place now and join us for the craic in NYC on July 15th.
