Blitzbokke seek elusive crown

Cape Town - The Springbok Sevens team are determined to deliver a much improved performance that will be good enough to win a first Hong Kong Sevens title in China this weekend.

After several near misses, South Africa are still searching for that elusive first Cup win at the famous rugby tournament.  However, the Springbok Sevens are fully aware they will have to lift their game if they want to succeed in Hong Kong.

After two displays in Dubai and Port Elizabeth, which resulted in two successive World Series tournament wins, the team admitted they went somewhat off the boil in Wellington and Las Vegas where they won bronze on both occasions.
