PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, (CMC) – Trinidad & Tobago men and Jamaica’s women rugby teams both copped silver at the Rugby Americans North (RAN) Sevens tournament, when the tournament climaxed here Sunday.
In a lopsided men’s final, T&T were blanked 38-0 by eventual winners Canada at the Larry Gomes Stadium in Malabar.
While the loss meant that they missed out on a spot for the 2025 World Rugby HSBC Sevens Challenger series, by virtue of a top-two finish, T&T’s juniors qualified for the 2025 Junior Pan Am Games’ Sevens competition.
Jamaica finished third and Mexico fourth, with Bermuda, The Cayman Islands, Guyana and Barbados placing fifth through eighth, respectively.
In the women’s division, Jamaica was left heartbroken after Mexico picked up two converted tries and scored 14 points in the final 45 seconds to record a 19-12 win in the final.
T&T’s women grabbed the bronze medal after dominating The Dominican Republic 29-0.
