Dominic McKay, director of communications and public affairs, said: Today’s announcement with Bauer Media is indicative of the efforts made by the sport’s governing body to increase the accessibility of the game through a partnership which will give a promotional boost to one of the most exciting feasts of rugby to take place at Murrayfield – the Emirates Airline Edinburgh 7s. This collaboration will enable rugby supporters across Scotland’s communities to get regular updates on the sevens as we move towards the tournament on the 29 and 30 May Scotland 7s captain, Scott Forrest, agreed: The summer weather makes for such a great sporting weekend. Everyone in the crowd had a great time last year at Murrayfield and really spurred us on when we took to the field for some top-class rugby and close-fought games. That’s when the supporters can really make a massive difference – you only need to look at how the team have performed at home in the last two years to see the impact they make. Hopefully, with the reach of all the stations within the Bauer Media group, the crowd size and noise will be boosted even further. After the first six events in Dubai, South Africa, New Zealand, USA, Australia and Hong Kong, Samoa currently lead the World Series by three points from eight-time winners New Zealand. Teams will compete in the penultimate leg in Twickenham, London before the final showdown at Murrayfield.
