International Rugby Sevens Lineal World Titles
The Haig Shield (Mens) and Signes Shield (Womens) are Challenge Trophy’s put up by the current holders, or defenders, in every match they play home or away (in the same manner as a world boxing title). The winner would either remain or become the holder.
The data on this site is a work in progress. Currently the data stretches back to 2016 where the data for sevens became easily available. If you want to help us go back further please get in touch!
