“I’m extremely pleased with my players,” said Wales Sevens Coach Dai Rees.

“We were very disappointed to miss out on the Cup competition yesterday, so to pick themselves up showed their character. I think the union has seen the value of Sevens and I’m confident that we’ll be involved in the whole series next year.”
