The 2015–16 World Rugby Women's Sevens Series will be the fourth edition of the World Rugby Women's Sevens Series (formerly the IRB Women's Sevens World Series), an annual series of tournaments organised by World Rugby for women's national teams in rugby sevens. Unlike the previous tournament, the 2015-16 event will not double as an Olympic qualifier. Whereas the 2014-15 women's series comprised six events, there will be only four events in 2015–16 with the overall winner of the series determined by points gained from the standings across the four events. Twelve teams will compete at each event; eleven of these will be "core" teams, with a twelfth team being invited to participate in particular events (similar to previous women's series as well as the men's counterpart). For the second time, the women's series held a core team qualifying tournament, similar to that held in the men's HSBC Sevens World Series.〔http://www.worldrugby.org/womens-sevens-series/news/78440〕 This year, the qualifying event was held at University College Dublin, in Ireland, and resulted in Japan and hosts Ireland qualifying as core teams for the main 2015-16 tournament.〔http://www.worldrugby.org/news/85586〕 ==The competition== Eleven "core teams" will participate in all series events for the 2015–16 series, the same number as the previous season.
