The British Columbia High School Provincial Girls 7s will be held this weekend at Thunderbird Stadium at the University of British Columbia.

This is the second time this event has been held. Last year, five teams competed with Cowichan High School beating Shawnigan Lake School 15-7 in the final.

The 2012 event boasts 16 teams from 13 schools.

"The women's national team is leading by example showing what it means to be the best in the world," BC High School Girls Rugby Association President Brad Baker told BC Rugby Union’s Andrew Smith. "There is a lot of high level interest in BC as the exposure is there and girls high school teams here are extremely excited.  The players are really looking forward to the opportunity to play more sevens and to compete for a provincial championship."
