The tournament is currently hosted in Sydney.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.theroar.com.au/2015/03/09/sydney-takes-over-from-gold-coast-as-sevens-host/ )〕 In previous seasons it was held on the Gold Coast, in Adelaide and in Brisbane. ==History== The 2000 Brisbane Sevens was the first Australian Sevens tournament in the World Sevens Series run by the International Rugby Board (IRB). It was the 7th tournament of the series in the inaugural 1999-2000 season and was plared at Ballymore. Fiji played Australia in the final, and won the match in the dying seconds, thanks to a brilliant try to Waisale Serevi.〔 Brisbane's hosting rights for 2001 were withdrawn by the IRB because of the Australian Federal Government's sporting boycott of Fiji,〔 imposed after the 2000 Fijian coup d'état.〔 After sanctions were lifted later in 2001,〔 the remaining two tournaments of Brisbane's four year hosting agreement were played and won by Australia and England in 2002 and 2003 respectively.〔〔 Australia was not awarded a World Sevens tournament for the next three years. Adelaide secured the hosting rights for the 2006/07 season. The 2007 Adelaide Sevens took place in April of that year, replacing the Singapore Sevens in the calendar.〔 The tournament was hosted at Adelaide Oval for five seasons, with the last edition of the Adelaide Sevens being held in 2011. In April 2011, the Australian Rugby Union announced that the Australian leg of the Sevens World Series would be played at Skilled Park on the Gold Coast for at least the next four years.〔 The tournament was scheduled for the early part of the 2011/12 season, which meant that two World Sevens events were played in Australia in 2011. The Gold Coast tournament was initially named the "International Rugby Sevens Gold Coast",〔 but was later rebranded as the Gold Coast Sevens.〔 The Gold Coast attendances for the 2013 and 2014 events were lower than expected,〔〔 and in March 2015 the ARU announced that Allianz Stadium in Sydney would host the event for the next four years from the 2015–16 season.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Australian Sevens」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
