This past January, the tournament was held under sunny skies and drew thousands of spectators, competitors, and fans, and was considered a huge success by those involved with a record number of teams participating.

“Hollywood Beach was alive with beach rugby in January, and we’re thrilled to be bringing the tournament back again next January,” said RAN General Manager, Niall Brooks.

“If you’ve never experienced beach rugby before, I strongly recommend giving it a try. Like the World Rugby Sevens Series, it’s a party atmosphere that’s fun for the whole family with music, food, sun, surf, and plenty of entertainment – on and off the ‘field’ of play,” added Brooks.
