2007 Edinburgh Sevens

Rugby sevens tournament

The Edinburgh Sevens is played annually as part of the IRB Sevens World Series for international rugby sevens (seven a side version of rugby union). The 2007 competition took place on 2 and 3 June, and was held at Murrayfield. It was the last leg of the 2006–07 IRB Sevens World Series.

New Zealand won the tournament after defeating Samoa, 34–5, in the final. Fiji were upset by Wales, 21–14, in their quarter-final. A Fijian victory would have guaranteed them the overall 2006–07 Series crown, however, as a result of their loss and New Zealand's tournament victory, New Zealand won the overall series.

Notes:

Gold indicates the event champions. Silver indicates the event runner-ups. A zero (0) is recorded in the event column where a team played in a tournament but did not gain any points. A dash (–) is recorded in the event column if a team did not compete at a tournament.
Teams that share a position in the standings (on the same total series points) are marked with an asterisk (*) beside their position.
Any teams that did not score any points in the overall series are marked with N/A in the position column. They are sorted by most number of events played, earliest date of events played, then alphabetically by team name.
