The tournament welcomed professional teams from Canada, California, Hawaii, St Louis, and New Zealand.
-
Alaska Midnight Sun 7s is sanctioned by USA Rugby.
-
Played on the same size field as traditional 15s rugby, 7s rugby is played with only seven players per team.
This year is set to be even bigger and better than the prior years, sporting a top-notch lineup and a more in-depth experience for the sponsors, players, and spectators! The tournament is held on one of the most exquisite and unique rugby pitches in the world: The Alaska Mountain Rugby Grounds.
With the help of numerous volunteers and other contributors, we strive to make each year more memorable than the last. With the growing popularity and population of Alaska, every festival is bigger than the one before.
