Springbok Sevens coach Neil Powell says the once-off nature of the sevens competition at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham will require a different mindset.
“For us it will be a challenge, because you only get one opportunity as opposed to the World Series format, where you can rectify things the next weekend if things didn’t go well for you in a tournament,” Powell said.
According to Powell, the challenge of the Games will require a unique approach: “It’s all or nothing because there is no second chance [the following weekend].” “We start off with Malaysia and the important thing for us would be to get straight into our flow in that first game,” said Powell.
