Kamloops Rugby Sevens tournament continues to grow
KAMLOOPS — Over the weekend, BC Rugby was in town as the host of the fourth annual Kamloops Sevens tournament. It started back in 2016 as a U14 girls tournament and has grown exponentially, reaching 75 teams this year, across several age groups for both girls and boys.
Sevens is a wide-open version of rugby that relies on speed and skill.
“I like Sevens because it’s so short and you get to show off how fast you are,” Kamloops Rugby Club U19 athlete Caleigh Silversides says, adding, “It looks better, I think.”
