Previously, this event was usually organized by the PM’s Cup Committee and was conducted every year in the format of 15 aside. This year, things have changed recently with the Samoa Primary Schools Principals Association on board and there has been a slight change of tournament format from 15s to 7 aside to coincide with the College Rugby Sevens Championship that begins on Wednesday 12th of May.
The tournament kicks off at 8:00am and will include a March parade and a short service.
