About
More about the team
The Springbok Sevens team, nicknamed the Blitzboks, have been one of the South African rugby success stories in the last 20 years. They first played in the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series in 1999 and were crowned champions in 2009, 2017, 2018 - the last two seasons marking a superb period for the team, which draw massive crowds at the annual HSBC Cape Town Sevens tournament played in the Mother City in December. They added a fourth World Series title in 2021 by winning two tournaments in Canada after the series was impacted due to COVID, and in 2022, they added a second Commonwealth Gold medal to their collection after also winning the tournament in 2014.
