As you can see Jordan was unlucky in this tournament due to the fact that we didn't have any subs therefore our players had to play all games without resting, while other teams had fresh players coming into the game every 2-3 minutes! But i was proud of my team performance we showed great commitment and played very well.

i have just arrived from the very very long trip back home from Kish Island, Jordan Rugby has participated in it &bi am so tired to post all tournament details but the final standings are as follow:

  1. Iran Rugby Union.
  2. Kish Island.
  3. Georgia.
  4. Jordan Rugby Union.

unfortunately we have ended last in the first Asian Rugby Sevens for Jordan but the guys played amazing rugby this week end and i am proud playing our first international tournament with them, i will be posting more details later on & after tomorrow we will be travelling to sri lanka sevens wish us luck :)

The newly formed Ruby Sevens Series is still running as scheduled with interesting results from teams like Malaysia who dominated its first Asian Rugby Sevens Series in Brunei to go undefeated and triumph in the final against Philippines 28-7.

After dominating its Brunei pool on day one with wins against Laos, India, Philippines and the hosts, Malaysia started day two equally strongly with an emphatic 47-0 win over Brunei to book a place in the final against the other form team, Philippines, who beat Laos 48-0.

In the Cup final, the Philippines were in contention for much of the match but the Malaysians proved the stronger side, eventually winning 28-7.

Lower down the competition, hosts Brunei continued their strong form, running India close 12-5 before upending fourth seeds Laos.

Having hit top form, the Malaysians must now prepare to play on home soil in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo on 31 October and 1 November, in the Series' fourth event.
