Canada Wins Silver in Women's Rugby Sevens

The young Canadian women's rugby sevens team, featuring eight players under the age of 24, secured a silver medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics and now aims for gold at Los Angeles 2028. The team overcame significant challenges, including a coaching carousel and internal tensions, to reach the final, where they narrowly lost to New Zealand. Assistant coach Jocelyn Barrieau will take over as head coach, becoming the first woman to coach the team at the Olympics if they qualify for L.A. Meanwhile, the Canadian women's soccer team faced a setback as their appeal against a penalty for a drone scandal was dismissed, resulting in a six-point deduction and suspensions for key coaching staff. Great Britain's Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix and Lois Toulson won bronze in the women's synchronized 10m platform diving, marking Team GB's 14th medal of the games.
