Ireland’s Sevens team moved a step closer to qualification for the Rugby World Cup Sevens in San Francisco next year after claiming victory in the Clermont Grand Prix.
The tournament win, which saw Anthony Eddy’s side beat France, Spain, Russia, Belgium, Wales and Italy, means that they have secured a place in next year's HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series qualifying tournament in Hong Kong.
