Therugby sevens tournaments at the2024 Summer Olympics inParis took place from 24 to 30 July atStade de France.[1] Twenty-four teams (twelve each for men and women) competed against each other in their respective tournaments.[2] For the first time, therugby sevens matches commenced two days before the opening ceremony with the men's preliminary and quarterfinal stages. The competition took a break for the opening ceremony on 26 July before the medal-winning teams were officially unveiled a day later. The women's tournament was held from 28 to 30 July, culminating with the gold and bronze medal matches.[3]
TheInternational Olympic Committee and theWorld Rugby (WR) ratified and released the qualification criteria for the 2024 Summer Olympics. The host nation France was reserved a direct quota place each in the men's and women's tournament, with the remainder of the total quota attributed to the eligibleNational Olympic Committees (NOCs) across three qualifying routes.[2]
The top four squads at the end of the2022–23 World Rugby Sevens Series secured the men's and women's spots for their respective NOC, with the continental champions from each of the six confederations (Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, North America, and South America) receiving the berths at their designated 2023 World Rugby Regional Association Olympic Qualification Tournaments.[2] To complete the twelve-team field for Paris 2024, the remaining spot will be offered to the winner of the 2024 Final Olympic Qualification Tournament, which took place a month before the Games commenced.[2][4]
