The Springbok Women’s Sevens team will make their South African debut on the afternoon of Friday 13 December at Cape Town Stadium, at the kick off of a long weekend of rugby action, which will culminate with men’s and women’s finals on Sunday evening (15 December).

Tickets for the event go on sale to Loyalty Members on Monday, 22 July and on general sale on 31 July. Loyalty Members are those who registered for, and purchased Loyalty Tickets in 2018 – they will be contacted directly by SA Rugby.

“We are extremely excited about the addition of the women’s event,” said Jurie Roux, SA Rugby CEO.

“Over the last four years, the HSBC Cape Town Sevens has delivered a world-class event for spectators and players alike, and we are working very hard to ensure the same high standards and expectations are met this year.

“The combined men’s and women’s event provides the first chance for a South African audience to see the leading women’s players in live action.”

The fun begins at 14h00 on Friday 13 December, with gates opening at 13h00, and all 16 men’s teams and 12 women’s teams will be in action on the opening day. Tickets for the opening day will cost R150 per person – for anywhere in the stadium.

Saturday’s play starts at 09h00 and an hour later on Sunday, completing two and a half days of action from the world's premier Rugby Sevens athletes to thrill spectators with skill, speed and upsets.

Prices for Saturday and Sunday play range from R195 to R400, depending on the location of the seat and the day.

“Last year, we responded to the market demand by creating a loyalty membership programme,” said Roux.

“Those loyalty members will be rewarded for their support this year with first option on tickets before the balance goes on general sale.

“This is a high demand event and we are looking forward to closing the doors once again, while making sure we continue to improve and refine what the spectators can expect.”
