BCRU Release Kamloops 7s Schedule: September 30th-October 1st

The BCRU bill it as the largest 7s tournament in Western Canada, we count 93 teams entered in 8 divisions. There’s U14 boys/girls, U16 boys/girls, U18 Open boys/girls and U18 Elite (boys/girls). It’s interesting, from a growth demographic perspective, that the largest division is the U16 girls with 20 teams entered. Most teams are from BC but there are a number of Alberta teams entered as well, we count 23 Alberta teams, with a few teams such as SheDevils, Lucky Ladies and 1697 where we’re unsure of their home base.

The BCRU say they will stream the Elite division games, boys and girls. Here are a couple of links for more info, plus the list of teams entered by division.
