The Springboks 7s are hoping to continue where they left off in the first Dubai 7s leg on Sunday.

After demolishing USA 42-7 in the final with only 11 fit players, Head Coach Neil Powell says they can’t rest on their laurels.

South Africa will face Great Britain, Ireland, and Japan in pool play this week and Powell says they will do a review of their performance and see in which areas they can improve.
