Photos from Canada 7s vs Pacific Pride from June 12th
As part of the process to get the Canada 7s team some game time prior to the Olympics, they squared off against the national rugby academy, the Pacific Pride, on 3 consecutive weekends. This was the final weekend of action.
The full 36 photos are on nationalrugbynews.com but here are a few of our favourites.
Kainoa Lloyd was named to the extended Canada XVs tour squad and he’s certainly one of Canada’s outside threats, especially with DTH, Taylor Paris and Jeff Hassler all out of contention. Here Harry Jones is trying to haul him in.
Justin Douglas has his hands full trying to stop this Pride player one on one. Believe this is Alex Russell for the Pride.
