In an important year, where teams are vying for Olympic qualification points, the teams will be eyeing top performances this weekend.
For the women, it’s the opening tournament of the season, where they will be without several familiar faces as those who recently won the Rugby World Cup in New Zealand take leave.
Experienced players Tyla Nathan-Wong, Niall Williams, Michaela Blyde and Kelly Brazier will be among those tasked with leading the side which features potential World Series debutants in Kelsey Teneti, Tysha Ikenasio, Manaia Nuku and Jorja Miller.
The latter made her debut at the Rugby World Cup Sevens in September while Teneti debuted for the Black Ferns in the longer form of the game against Australia back in June. Ikenasio and Nuku would be making their black jersey debut should they be selected in the next two weeks.The All Blacks Sevens kicked off their Olympic qualification year in Hong Kong earlier this month and missed out on the quarter finals after a tough pool assignment.
They too have a potential debutant in their ranks with young Waikato star Tepaea Cook-Savage in the travelling group, both Dylan Collier and Ngarohi McGarvey-Black have remained in New Zealand on leave.
