The star-studded Pepsi Hornets squad triumphed in the inaugural Guinness Sevens tournament played Saturday in front of a fair-sized crowd under  floodlights at the National Park.

After a most entertaining evening of competitive Sevens rugby, the Hornets ruggers overcame an impressive Yamaha Caribs unit in the decider, 29-10 to lift the Guinness 7s champion’s trophy.
