The Sports Tok 7s is a prominent, annual rugby sevens tournament held in Papua New Guinea (PNG). It is one of the biggest rugby union sevens events in the country, drawing teams from various provinces and, recently, international participants.

Tournament Details

• Format: The tournament uses the fast-paced rugby sevens format, played on a standard rugby pitch with seven players per team and shorter match times (two seven-minute halves).
• Location: The event is primarily held in Port Moresby, with matches typically taking place at the Santos National Football Stadium and the finals at the Sir John Guise Stadium.
• Inception: The tournament was established in 2018 with the goal of creating an avenue for local, budding rugby players to showcase their skills and potentially be selected for the national team, the PNG Pukpuks.
• Sponsorship: It has been consistently sponsored by Niu Power Ltd and Kumul Minerals Holdings Limited (KMHL), which has helped the event grow in size and prestige, offering a significant cash prize pool.
