Latvia national rugby sevens team

The Latvia national rugby union sevens is a minor national sevens side.

Latvian rugby received a surprise boost when they qualified for the Rugby World Cup Sevens in 1993.[1] At the time, there were only two pitches in the country, both of which spent much of their time under snow.[1]
