Riga 2011, European Rugby sevens ChampionshipNorway already played four of the five matches in Division 2 Pool A of the European 7s Championship in Riga.
Norway already did better then ever, securing a 3rd place in their pool.
Tomorrow, Norway will meet the leader Switzerland as their last pool game.

Even though a victory against Switzerland is unlikely, this game will be an advantage for Norway on Sunday in order to prepare for a plate competition and a fight for the 5th place.

In the worst case scenario, Norway will rank 3rd at the end of the pool games having lost their match against Czech Republic this morning.

Norway already secured an honourable position in the division 2. It is good to remember that Norway should have played in Division 3, and there is no doubt now, Norway deserved their promotion.

At that stage, Norway can only surprise us. Go Norway.

We´re aiming for Top 4 at the moment. First game will tell if we make it or not. And then the goal will be the plate.

Thanks for the well wishes, I will pass them on to the team :)
