Search11th October 2008 : USA Names Sevens SquadCaravelli Names U.S. Sevens Squad Set for Florida Training Assembly With the focus on defining skills, defense and fitness, this Florida assembly will serve as an opportunity for Caravelli to have one more look at these players before he narrows the squad down to just 12 for the trip to the Bahamas. The squad is among the youngest Caravelli has ever assembled with ten players at or below the age of 20, Caravelli believes this should make for a very energetic and competitive camp.
The week long training assembly will culminate in a series of games - three on October 17 and four on October 18 - to simulate what the U.S. Team will face in the Bahamas. Eleven men’s and nine women’s teams will contest the NAWIRA qualifiers, held October 25-26, in an effort to secure one of two places available from both competitions to play at RWC Sevens 2009 in Dubai next March. In the men’s competition, the USA - who have replaced Canada as a core member of the IRB Sevens World Series in 2008/09 - have been drawn in Pool A with Mexico and Bermuda, while Canada head Pool B with Trinidad & Tobago, Cayman Islands and the Bahamas. Guyana, the reigning Caribbean Sevens champions, is joined in Pool C by Jamaica, Barbados and St Vincent & The Grenadines. At the end of day one the three pool winners and runners-up will be redrawn into two Cup pools, the top two in each then progressing to the semi finals with the two finalists securing their passage to the RWC Sevens 2009.

”We are looking to pick up from where we left off at our last assembly, just a month ago,” Caravelli explained. “Everyone invited to this camp has been putting in the hard work and doing exactly what we have requested of them. I expect this to be among the most difficult selection decisions I’ve ever faced.”
