Singapore Cricket Club International Rugby Sevens

The Singapore Cricket Club International Rugby Sevens is an annual Rugby sevens tournament hosted by the Singapore Cricket Club (SCC). The event is one of the premier international club tournaments in Asia, involving teams from around the world.

The trophy for the tournament, the Ablitt Cup, is named after Mr Bernard E Ablitt who was Convenor of the SCC Rugby Section from 1931-2 and President of the club from 1938-9. The silver Ablitt Cup was donated by Mrs Katherine Parentis in 1947 for the winners of the first seven-a-side tournament organised by the SCC Rugby Section. The tournament has since become an annual competition and one of the world's oldest Rugby sevens competitions. Many regard the SCC 7s as the most professionally run Sevens tournaments in the world, outside of the IRB Sevens Circuit.
