The 2024 Asia Rugby Sevens Series will kick off on September 7-8 in Incheon, Korea, with a lineup of highly experienced match officials to ensure top-notch officiating. The tournament will feature the top eight men’s and women’s teams competing at the highest level, overseen by Dilroy Fernando as the Match Official Manager. In a recent Pacific Nations Cup match, Japan defeated Canada 55-28, marking Canada's first appearance in the tournament since 2019 and their first match against Japan since 2016. Canada's poor start saw them concede 38 points within the first 30 minutes, despite a strong second-half effort. Japan introduced a number of new players, including three making their test debuts, as they looked to rebound from a previous underwhelming performance against Italy. The Pacific Championships will also return in 2024, featuring teams from Australia, New Zealand, and other Pacific nations, with finals set for mid-November in Sydney.
