Hong Kong, 19 February 2009:  The Official Draw for the Cathay Pacific/Credit Suisse Hong Kong Sevens 2009 was held this evening, (Feb. 19), at Hong Kong’s Exchange Square.  As the only 24-team event on the circuit in the most competitive season in IRB World Sevens Series history, the draw results - and the 30 series points that go to the Cup champions in Hong Kong - could be the crucial factor in determining who wins the Series. 

This year’s IRB Sevens World Series is the most evenly contested in the history of the Series with the four tournaments played to date having been won by three different teams.  Last year’s Hong Kong Sevens cup finalists South Africa won in Dubai and George, four-time Hong Kong champions England won in Wellington and Argentina were the shock champions of last weekend’s USA Sevens.  Other teams like Kenya and USA have also carved out some remarkable upsets beating New Zealand and Fiji respectively on the Series to date. 

All of this and the fact that one of these teams will be World Champions by end March promises one of the most entertaining weekends in Hong Kong Sevens history. The Cathay Pacific / Credit Suisse Hong Kong Sevens 2009 will be played form March 27 to 29, 2009 at the 40000 seat Hong Kong Stadium
