@lantic Rugby Sevens was the largest seven-a-side school rugby tournament in the world.[1] It consists of a total of 256 teams from different high schools across South Africa and acted as a formal pathway for schoolboys to progress to the South African national sevens team and the 2016 Summer Olympics squad.

History

@lantic Rugby Sevens was founded in July 2007 after @lantic, a local South African ISP, saw the opportunity to develop talent at a junior level for the national sevens team and decided to invest in the community through sport.

In 2008, the @lantic Rugby Sevens series hosted its first Champion of Champions tournament at Atomic Sport Academy.[2] Harmony Sport Academy from Virginia, Free State, out played fifteen other teams to take the crown as the best schools sevens team in South Africa, that year.[3]

Due to the success of the @lantic Rugby Sevens series, a provincial tournament was born in 2011. This tournament, commonly referred to as the Sevens Craven Week, provides a platform for schoolboys to be selected for the South African national sevens rugby team. The Blue Bulls beat the Cheetahs 43-14 in the cup final to take the title of @lantic Provincial U18 champions in 2011.[4]

The @lantic Provincial U18 tournament took place on the 4 and 5 October in 2012.
