Hawick Linden Sevens is an annual rugby sevens event held by Hawick Linden RFC, in Hawick, Scotland. The first Hawick Linden Sevens tournament was held in 2012.[1]
History
The first tournament was staged on 14 April 2012. This was the same day as the prestigious Melrose Sevens tournament that was won by Saracens.[2] The intention of the Hawick Linden Sevens tournament was to give teams not invited to the Melrose Sevens a chance to play in a Sevens tournament.[1]
As league matches need to be rescheduled this has occasionally affected the staging of the Sevens tournament over the past years.[3]
Life Members Cup
The winner of the Hawick Sevens receives the Life Members Cup. The Player of the Tournament receives the Moira Black Trophy.[4]
Sponsorship
The Sevens tournament of 2019 was sponsored by Wilson Signs and Hunters the Bakers.[4]
