Rugby World Cup Sevens

‘Tackle him down! You got this!’ Audience behind me are all screaming at the team captain, praying he can make a quintessential tackle to avoid the other team gaining points. This is my first-time joining Rugby World Cup Sevens which is held at the Hong Kong Stadium. The streets in Causeway Bay exude festival vibes starting from lunch hour. It is not only a sport tournament, but an international party for sport lovers who travel across the world to root for their teams. Their enthusiasm is contagious. Even if you are not a Rugby lover, you will still enjoy this competition.
