Midwest 7s Series

The mission of the Midwest 7s Series is to grow the sport of Rugby 7s in quality, image, and awareness comparable to the XVs version of Rugby Union, while providing the strongest teams within the Midwest Rugby Union a clear regional pathway to qualify for the USA Club Rugby National Championships. Established in 2012, the Series is the result of collaboration among USA Club Rugby, the Midwest Rugby Union (MWRU), the Midwest Rugby Referee Society (MRRS), and Rugby 7s event organizers throughout the Union.
