Asia Square in Singapore’s Marina Bay business district will become a rugby hub on 8 December as organisers try to build interest in next year’s HSBC Singapore Rugby Sevens.

Singapore will take on Japan at the Asia Rugby Sevens Olympic Games Qualifier in Hong Kong in November 2015.

Celebrity DJs from official radio station ONE 91.3 will be broadcasting live on site all day starting from 6.00 a.m. and will be interacting with fans through quizzes and games.

Visitors can look forward to the chance of winning prizes in interactive games like the ‘One Minute Passing Challenge’ or ‘Guess Who Loves Rugby’. They will also learn about the 16 rugby nations that will be in Singapore next April as they build up towards next year’s Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Singapore Rugby will also attempt to break the world record for most passes in an hour.

The HSBC Singapore Rugby Sevens will take place on 16 and 17 April 2016 at the National Stadium.
