Newscast Media HOUSTON, Texas—The International Rugby Board and USA Rugby awarded Houston a multi-year deal to host the International Rugby Women's Sevens World Series featuring 12 international women's teams competing at BBVA Compass Stadium in downtown Houston, on February 1 and 2, 2013.
England claimed the second IRB Women's Sevens World Series title in Houston on February 2, following a dominant display in the final over hosts USA. England ran out 29-12 winners after an excellent weekend, where they had to beat the champions from Dubai, New Zealand, twice on the way to lifting the title. Jo Watmore scored a hat-trick in the final, in a display of real power and pace, and England, led strongly by captain Alice Richardson and with Heather Fisher in sublime form, fully deserved their title. Below are some of the highlights of the games:
