Rugby Sevens: Skills, Tactics and Rules
John McKittrick,Author Tony Williams,Eric Rush
Rugby sevens is a faster and more free-flowing game of rugby than the fifteens. Played with seven per side on the same-sized field as fifteens means fewer defenders with more space to cover and a far faster pace.

The book includes 100 photographs of international male and female players in action, including team USA. Utah-born Maka Unufe of the USA Rugby Sevens is on the front cover.
