Full squads for Las Vegas Sevens

Some of the world’s best sevens players will be in Las Vegas this weekend for the fifth stop on the 2017-18 HSBC Sevens Series. A total of 47 Olympians are spread across the 16 teams.

Among the biggest names in the tournament are Jerry Tuwai, Collins Injera, Cecil Afrika, Dan Norton, Nathan Hirayama, Tim Mikkelson, and World Rugby Player of the Year Perry Baker.

Four counties from the Americas will be represented. Core teams Argentina, Canada, and the USA are joined by regional qualifiers Uruguay, who earned their spot at the Sudamérica Sevens series in January.

Viewers in the USA and South American can watch live on ESPN 3. Those in Canada can watch on the CBC Sports website and app. World Rugby will provide a stream for residents outside the Americas.

The three-day tournament begins on Friday. A complete list of fixtures can be seen here.
