Rugby sevens
Question
hi. i was just wondering, what are the positions in rugby sevens?
i mean titles and such.
Answer
Stephanie,
The rugby sevens positions are:
-Tight-head prop.
-Loose-head prop.
-Hooker.
-Scrum half.
-Fly half.
-Center.
-Wing. Virtually universally called "the flyer."
The team must have one or more individuals that can fulfill the following requirements:
-ball-winning, on the ground, in the air, and at the tackle,
-finishing, i.e. scoring tries,
-creating, i.e. making the initial move that begins to "undiscipline" the opponents
-destroying, i.e. disrupting the opponents' offense.
A very good description of the positions and requirements for sevens rugby is at:
