The Trinidad and Tobago (TT) senior men’s and women’s rugby teams delivered impressive performances at the 2025 RAN Sevens tournament, held at the Larry Gomes Stadium in Malabar on November 23. The men’s team triumphed over Bermuda with a commanding 29-5 victory, securing their qualification for the 2026 Caribbean American and Caribbean (CAC) Games. Meanwhile, the women’s team dominated their Bermudian counterparts with a resounding 27-0 win, earning a bronze medal. Despite their strong showing, the women’s team narrowly missed out on CAC Games qualification. The men’s team, led by standout performances from Jonathan Taylor, who scored a hat-trick, and Ruairi O’Farrell, who contributed two conversions, showcased their resilience after a semifinal loss to Canada. The women’s team, spearheaded by Fayola Jack’s two tries, demonstrated their prowess in the bronze medal match. Canada and Mexico emerged as the tournament champions in the men’s and women’s categories, respectively, with both teams advancing to the SVNS qualification pathway. TT Rugby Union Treasurer Chad Simeon expressed pride in the teams’ achievements and highlighted the union’s ambitions to establish TT as a premier rugby destination. The 2025 RAN Sevens, featuring 20 teams from 14 countries, was streamed globally on RugbyPass TV, further elevating the tournament’s profile.
