USA Rugby Sevens

What is Sevens ?
McCartney.com is proud to have been retained by Doug Arnot, CEO of USA Rugby and his team to answer just this question. Using email, NetSpots®, street teams and other promotional tricks we have up our jerseys, we are inviting the world to join the sport's top teams in Los Angeles, February 12th-13th 2005.

Played on the same size field as traditional 15 a-side rugby, sevens rugby is played with only seven players per side. In addition to a keen understanding of how the game is played, pure speed and athleticism are the foundation for the sevens rugby standout. The game is played with non-stop action, thrilling attacks and game saving tackles.

The USA Sevens debuted at the Home Depot Center in Los Angeles, California in February 2004, marking the first time the United States ever hosted an official IRB event of this magnitude and world importance.

With 16 Nations, 44 Games and 2 incredible days of action, USA Sevens is fast becoming on of the most exciting sporting events in the United States.

Tournament Passes are on sale at the Home Depot Center Box Office and all Ticketmaster Outlets. Club Seats, Reserved and General Admission tickets are also available.

Robert DeNiro, Brian May, Roger Taylor, Sir Ben Elton, OBE, Eric Idle, Meat Loaf, Steve Lukather (Toto), Steve Vai, Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme), Chris Thompson (Manfred Mann's Earthband), Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers, posing as Will Ferrell), Jennifer Saunders, Rita Rudner, Thomas Gottschalk, the ever-present Robin Leach and many many more....

We thank Brian May for the kind invitation and wish the producers, the cast and crew the best of luck with the musical. Freddie you are not forgotten.
