Copenhagen Scandinavian Sevens 2021 has been canceled

: Published: 05 March 2021; Last Updated: 05 March 2021

Unfortunately, we have to announce that this year's Copenhagen Sevens has been canceled.
As the uncertainty about the COVID19 situation makes it difficult to predict and plan what the year will bring, the board has chosen to cancel this year's tournament.
We hope that we can instead hold a one-day tournament for Danish teams. More information on this will follow as we get closer.
We look forward to hopefully seeing you soon in and around the club and on the pitches.

Copenhagen Scandinavian 7’s 2020 cancellation due to COVID-19

: Published: 16 May 2020; Last Updated: 16 May 2020

Sadly we have had to decide to cancel the August 8 and 9, 2020 7’s tournament in Copenhagen. The cancellation is unfortunately a consequence of the plans for opening after the COVID-19 lockdown in Denmark.

First in May the Danish government announced, that at the earliest on August 31, more than 500 individuals can participate in the same sport event.

The RK Speed board wants all to know, that we plan to be back strongly in 2021. We are not done with the traditional rugby party in August. So stay tuned for the 2021 7’s!

The entry fees we have already received, will be returned shortly.

We hope to see you all in 2021.

Copenhagen Scandinavian Open 7s 8-9 August 2020

: Published: 09 February 2020; Last Updated: 09 February 2020

Every year, the biggest rugby event in Scandinavia is hosted by Rugbyklubben Speed in Copenhagen – and as always it will take place the second weekend of August. This year we open the clubhouse, the pitches and the surrounding fields for a weekend full of competitive rugby in a friendly and festive atmosphere 8 and 9 August.
Copenhagen Scandinavian Sevens is played in three tournaments; Men, Women and Old Boys.
Based on an evaluation of the previous tournaments and changed sponsorship agreements, we will no longer award monetary prizes for any winning teams. Rather, we will focus on the rugby spirit on and off the pitch for everyone involved.
The tournament has been hosted in Copenhagen for more than three decades. After the first sevens in 1982, the tournament moved around Scandinavia, but eventually ended at Speed in 1987. Since then it has been an annual event with many recurring guests, but also new teams showing up each year. The 2019 tournaments for both men and women were won by Ramblin Jesters. Both winning teams were in their own league and did only concede a single try against during the whole tournament.
We look forward to weekend full of rugby for all levels, ages, genders and ambitions, where everyone in Speed will do their best to make it enjoyable for our guests!
