Get ready for a weekend of fast-paced, high-energy football as the Jamberoo Sevens returns, promising non-stop action under the lights and in the early morning sun. This year’s tournament is bigger than ever, with 39 different countries represented from six continents, making it a truly global football showdown.
President Alan Smith sums it up best: “We start on Friday night at 8:15pm. And then again at 8am on Saturday. The two are very different experiences. Playing under lights has much excitement and atmosphere. You’ll know what I mean when you come and experience it for yourself.”
If you’ve ever watched old-school football matches, you’ll notice one thing, speed has changed everything. The modern game is faster, more precise and demands quick thinking under pressure. Research shows that passing rates and ball speed have consistently increased in World Cup matches, and at Jamberoo, you’ll see that in action.
Faster play means sharper footwork, lightning passes, and thrilling counterattacks, making Sevens football a perfect showcase for the modern game. The reduced team size increases the intensity, testing players’ endurance, agility and game sense. Whether you’re on the pitch or on the sidelines, the energy is electric.
So, whether you thrive under Friday night lights or prefer the crispness of an early morning challenge, don’t miss out on Jamberoo’s biggest football showdown. Come for the competition, stay for the atmosphere - this is football at its most exhilarating
