March dates may change if Hong Kong secures last leg

The Hong Kong Sevens will have to be pushed back a fortnight to mid-April in 2016 if the Hong Kong Rugby Football Union's ambition to become the climactic final leg of the IRB Sevens World Series is to be realised.

"We might have to play our tournament a few weeks later, in mid-April, if our bid to become the final leg in the World Series is to materialise," said Trevor Gregory, HKRFU chairman.
