Empire Women's Selects Make Return at NY7s

  • Dec 10,2024

The Empire Women's Selects made its return to play at this years’ New York Sevens. The roster was a mix of returning players from previous years along with many new players to the program.


Our expectations were to reach the cup semifinals and the team accomplished the goal, in spite of not having the best pool play results.


As the day progressed, the team's standard of play improved and we will use this experience and results as a motivator for the 2025 season.
