The Blitzboks faced a challenging weekend at the Madrid Sevens tournament. They were defeated by New Zealand with a score of 33-24, which ended their cup title hopes. The team also suffered a heavy loss to Fiji and failed to register a pool stage victory. Consequently, they missed the semi-finals after losing all three pool matches. On the final day, the Blitzboks went down to Ireland, ending a disappointing tournament for South Africa. Selvyn Davids commented on the team's performance in Madrid. The Blitzboks are set to face Australia in the 5th-place semi-final. In other highlights, Antoine Dupont led France to victory in the SVNS Grand Final against Argentina, marking a successful period for the French team.
