“Tonight, we honour the stars who have shone brightly throughout a thrilling, brilliant HSBC SVNS season that has seen new teams emerge as contenders, new stars wow fans and moments of magic that will live long in the memory," World Rugby Chief Executive Alan Gilpin said.
“Congratulations to the winners. With outstanding athleticism, sublime skill and scintillating speed, all our nominees and winners continue to demonstrate why Sevens is a hit at the Olympics.
