Silicon Valley 7's, which will bring some of the world's great participants in the Olympic sport of Rugby Sevens to the Bay Area for this special event, is set for Saturday, November 4 and Sunday, November 5 at Avaya Stadium in San Jose. United World Sports is the owner and operator of the largest annual rugby events in the United States.
Among the 12 teams competing in this debut tournament are the men's sevens squads from Tonga, Samoa and Fiji, a trio of Pacific Island national teams competing in the same tournament for the first time since the 2007 USA Sevens. Also featured is the men's sevens squad from Ireland, the first time that the squad will ever compete in the United States. Joining them are teams from the United States, Canada, Australia, England, Chile, New Zealand, Japan and China, coming together at the Silicon Valley 7s as they begin preparations for 2018 international rugby sevens season.
