The 2021 Canada Women's Sevens was held as two "Fast Four" invitational rugby sevens events on consecutive weekends in late September that year. The first was hosted at BC Place in Vancouver and the second at Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton. These tournaments, which featured four national women's teams, were played as the sixth season of the Canada Women's Sevens but were not part of the cancelled 2021 World Rugby Women's Sevens Series. All official tournaments on the women's world circuit for the season were cancelled,[1] including the Canada Women's Sevens tournament for twelve teams originally planned for Langford during the spring,[2] due to impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Format
[edit]All national women's teams played four matches at each Fast Four event. Three matches within a round-robin format were followed by a final playoff match. The top two teams met in the gold medal match, with the bottom two playing for bronze. The women's final matches were played directly before the men's final to complete the second day of competition at the 2021 Canada Sevens tournaments.
