Rugby Canada Seeks Expressions of Interest for Coaching International Age-Grade Women’s Sevens
Rugby Canada has put out a request for Expressions of Interest from qualified coaches for several age-grade women’s 7s tournaments in 2026. The three tournaments mentioned are:
- The Youth Olympic Games in Senegal
- FISU World University Championships in South Africa
- EAAST 7s in France
The details are below along with the link to apply. There’s no mention of men’s age-grade competitions which is a shame, it’s uncertain whether this is due to a lack of funding for men’s age-grade 7s or the potential for results is higher with women’s 7s. Either way it would be good if Rugby Canada was transparent in explaining the issues.
