Blitzboks Ready for Bordeaux — Pool Fixtures Set

Blitzboks Storm to Series Glory

The South African Blitzboks have lit up the rugby sevens circuit once again. By grabbing four titles from six events they wrapped up the World Series crown in style. Their charge shows the depth and fire that keeps fans back home glued to every tackle and try.

Hong Kong Triumph Sets the Tone

After claiming the first World Championship title in Hong Kong the boys looked unstoppable. A tough final loss to Australia in Spain last weekend could not knock them off the summit. They sit on 38 points two clear of Argentina and eight ahead of third-placed Australia.

Jayden Nell Ignites the Attack

Twenty-two-year-old outside back turned sevens forward Jayden Nell is making waves. Injuries slowed his path after joining the squad in 2023 yet he broke through with his senior debut in New York during March. His first try against Spain in the Valladolid quarterfinal had teammates buzzing and sent his celebration viral across Mzansi.

Squad Shake-Up Ahead of Bordeaux

Pool Foes Line Up for Battle

The Blitzboks face Great Britain Kenya and Fiji in their pool. Nell stressed the team knows the formula. "We know what to do and it all boils down to how we play together as a team" he said. "We have seen this year that if the guys do that we are a tough team to beat."

Staying Present Keeps Nell Sharp

Transitioning from fifteens to the forward role in sevens Nell refuses to chase stats. His focus stays on the moment and on helping the team win. That grounded approach has already delivered big moments and promises more fireworks in France.
