Play starts Thursday in Australia
The Langford-based Canadian women’s rugby sevens team has never had to go through the North American/Caribbean qualifier for the Olympics, each time taking the most direct route to Rio and Tokyo by placing in the top four in the previous HSBC World Series seasons.
“The results in Hamilton [Canada placed 11th last weekend at the New Zealand Sevens in Hamilton] were not up to the standards that we set for ourselves as a team,” Canadian head coach Jack Hanratty said in a statement.“This is an important week for us, and we look forward to competing in what will be a physically demanding pool,” said Hanratty.
Langford-based Canada is No. 14 on the men’s side heading into Sydney and resigned to knowing it will not be in the top four of the season World Series standings and will have to go through the North American/Caribbean Olympics qualifier in order to get to Paris 2024. There is the added pressure of having to place in the top 11 just to remain on the World Series circuit for next season.
