SA’s Blitzboks ready to defend Sevens title in new season

Instead, Snyman says the Blitzboks will take a more holistic approach, aiming to combine growth and development with on-field success. “We want to continue building the team while striving for excellence on the pitch,” he said.

The new season structure was recently confirmed, with World Rugby announcing that the series will return to Cape Town. The Blitzboks will defend their title at the DHL Stadium in the Western Cape on December 6 and 7.

A new format will see eight men’s and eight women’s teams competing in the first six tournaments, which Snyman predicts will produce “outstanding rugby” and showcase some of SA’s finest talent on new playing surfaces across the globe.
