Indonesian National Women’s 7’s Team

In 2010, the PRUI commenced a women’s Rugby 7’s program and it plans to play exhibition matches during the 2010 HSBC A5N Division 3 Tournament to expose Women’s Rugby 7’s to Indonesia.

The PRUI is encouraging girls and women to play Rugby 7’s as this fits in with the IRB’s goal of increasing female participation on the sport, plus Women’s Rugby 7’s has also been included in the 2016-20 Olympic Games.

At the 2013 Bali 10’s Tournament there was a women’s competition included in the program for the first time. Despite being a Rugby 10’s Tournament, the skills learnt and the involvement in a competition augers well for the future of Women’s Rugby 7’s in Indonesia.
