| The Hong Kong Rugby Union (HKRU) today announced its 12-man squad to compete in the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series qualifiers, played as part of the Cathay Pacific/HSBC Hong Kong Sevens, from Friday to Sunday, 5-7 April, at the Hong Kong Stadium. Russ Webb (FH 07-12), is among three players who made their Hong Kong Sevens debut last year, to rejoin the squad in 2019. Webb suffered an injury that kept him out for much of the season, but ran the pivot well in Fiji and Borneo to press his claims again. Hong Kong are top seeds in Pool E along with Tonga, Zimbabwe, and the Philippines. Russia will tangle with last year’s semi finalists Ireland in Pool F - with experienced competitors Uruguay and Jamaica in the mix as well. The remaining semi-finalists from 2018, Chile and Germany, face off in Pool G alongside Uganda and Cook Islands. Read more |
