Welcome from<br />
World Rugby<br />
The <strong>Wellington</strong> round of the HSBC World Rugby<br />
Sevens Series is always a spectacular tournament<br />
and a demonstration of world-class rugby sevens.<br />
Over the past few years, it has<br />
established itself as a high-point of the<br />
series and one that is always eagerly<br />
awaited by rugby fans throughout the<br />
city and further afield.<br />
This is the third tournament in the<br />
2015-16 HSBC World Rugby Sevens<br />
Series and with two rounds completed,<br />
the All Blacks Sevens could do with the<br />
points as they currently lie in joint-sixth<br />
position, 10 points behind co-leaders<br />
Fiji and South Africa. This year is<br />
shaping up to be a memorable season.<br />
I would like to thank our title sponsor,<br />
HSBC, for its continued commitment<br />
to the game. Thanks also to our other<br />
sponsors, to our broadcaster, as well<br />
as the players, match officials and<br />
organisers.<br />
Have fun!<br />
Bernard Lapasset<br />
