We are dedicated to providing a first-rate field of play and delivering an outstanding experience for all athletes, coaches and officials. We are also committed to providing athletes and teams

The training facilities will be of similarly high standard and will be conveniently located within easy reach of the Athletes Village and satellite accommodation locations.
To assist you in your Games preparations, we have prepared this Sport Technical Manual in collaboration with your respective Continental and International Federations. This manual provides the necessary sport-specific content for the successful delivery of each sport competition as well as operational and general information that may be of interest to athletes and teams.
The Games provide an opportunity to celebrate and strengthen the goals of fair play and diversity, foster lifelong friendships, promote accessibility and inclusion, and encourage all of us, on and off the field, to practice good sportsmanship.
We look forward to welcoming you to Toronto in July 2015.

W6 Male 8 teamsTwo groups of four teams (countries) will be created. The placing of the teams will be through seeding. Team seeding will be determined by the IRB.
The teams will play against each of the other teams in their pool.
Following the pool rounds, the teams will be ranked and proceed to knockout rounds and medal/placement matches as indicated below.
1.1 The eight teams competing will be grouped into two pools of four as follows:
Pool A Pool BA1 = 1st seed B1 = 2nd seedA2 = 4th seed B2 = 3rd seedA3 = 5th seed B3 = 6th seedA4 = 8th seed B4 = 7th seed
6TECHNICAL MANUAL
1.2 Play on the first day of the tournament will consist of matches between teams in the same pool on a round-robin basis. No extra time will be played in pool matches. Points will be awarded for these matches on the following basis:
Win = 3 pointsDraw = 2 pointsLoss = 1 pointNo show = 0 points
If a team willfully refuses to play, or willfully abandons a match in progress, without the prior consent of the match referee, then, subject to confirmation by the technical delegate or IRB commission, that team will be expelled from the tournament.
If a team has been expelled from the tournament for whatever reason, then:
that team shall be deemed to have been awarded no pool competition table points and to have scored no tries or points in the pool matches; and
for the purposes of determining standings in the pool competition table, all match results against such team shall be deemed null and void. This means that all pool competition table points awarded in matches against the expelled team, and tries and points scored or conceded in matches against such team, will not be taken into account in determining standings in the pool competition table.
1.3 Determining pool competition table standingsPosition in the pool competition table shall be determined by competition points as set out in 1.2 above. If at the conclusion of the pool stage, two teams are equal on competition points for any position in the pool, such position in the pool competition table will be determined on the result of the match between the two equal teams. The team that won that match shall be deemed to have finished higher in the pool competition table.
If the match between the two teams equal on competition points at the end of the pool stage was a draw, then the following process shall be used to determine the placings:
The margin of points scored for and against a team in all pool matches shall be considered. The team with the highest positive margin of points shall be ranked higher in the pool competition table. If the tie remains unresolved, then:
The margin of tries scored for and against a team in all pool matches shall be considered. The team with the highest positive margin of tries shall be ranked higher in the pool competition table. If the tie remains unresolved, then:
The team that has scored the highest number of points in the pool matches shall be ranked higher in the pool competition table. If the tie still remains unresolved, then;
The team that has scored the highest number of tries in the pool matches shall be ranked higher in the pool competition table. If the tie still remains unresolved, then:
The tie will be resolved by the toss of a coin between the team managers concerned.
If at the end of the pool stage more than two teams are tied on points, then the following process shall be used to determine the placings:

Guidelines for addressing thunderstorms and visible lightning that should be used for the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am Games, if no Games, federal or provincial statutes take precedence:
15
Rugby Sevens
In the event of an approaching thunderstorm with visible lightning, the flash/bang technique will be used to determine the proximity of the approaching storm.
The flash/bang technique means that for every count of three, from the time the lightning bolt is seen to the time when the associated thunder is heard, the lightning is approximately one kilometre away. A flash/bang count of nine indicates that the storm is approximately three kilometres distant (approximately two miles). A flash/bang count of 15 indicates the storm is approximately five kilometres distant (approximately three miles).
When thunder is heard and a flash/bang of 30 is calculated (representing approximately 10 kilometres), it is an indication that a thunderstorm is in the area and the person responsible for storm monitoring should be on alert.
If the flash/bang intensity increases to a level of nine, or approximately three kilometres, the referee should stop all play and all participants should seek shelter in the dressing rooms. Once the thunderstorm passes over, the referee should wait until the flash/bang is nine or greater before resuming play.
Thunderstorms have a tendency to reverse course and come back over an area that they have just passed. The person monitoring the storm should remain vigilant until the storm is out of sight or the flash/bang count is 30 or greater.
Sport InformationSport Information DesksSport information desks will be located at all competition venues and at the sport information centre in the CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Athletes Village. These desks will provide a variety of services to teams, including:

TECHNICAL MANUAL
AccreditationAccreditation is the process of identifying individuals and their role(s) at the Pan Am Games, and ensuring they are granted the appropriate access to fulfil their role(s). The role of the NOC is to register, appropriately, every potential athlete, official, dignitary and press person from its territory.
Applications for accreditation must be received by TO2015 no later than March 27, 2015, in order for NOCs to receive the pre-valid cards (PVCs) before the delegations departure for the Games.
Eligibility Condition Forms As required by the PASO statute, each athlete and team official must complete an eligibility condition form acknowledging his or her compliance with Games objectives and goals regarding participation in the Games. The form is mandatory and must be signed by participating athletes and officials before their arrival at the Games, in order for their accreditation to be validated.
Pre-valid CardsBy May 30, 2015, and following the data verification and the pre-DRMs, TO2015 will produce and send out PVCs to each NOC. NOCs will be responsible for distributing the PVCs to their delegation members before they travel to Toronto.
The PVC, along with a valid passport, will serve as an official entry document to Canada. Individuals will be able to enter Canada using this process from May 11, 2015 to August 25, 2015, at 11:59 p.m., for a period of stay no longer than six months from first entry. No additional entry visas will be required during this period. The PVC will be valid for multiple entries, provided it is accompanied on each occasion by a valid passport.
Accreditation Card ValidationAfter the DRM has been completed, eligible delegation members will be able to validate their PVCs, which will provide access to the CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Athletes Village, once the village opens on July 5, 2015. It can also be used to access other official competition and non-competition venues, as determined during the DRM. Only once the PVC is validated does it become an official Pan Am identity and accreditation card (PIAC).
Upon arrival in Toronto, delegation members holding PVCs can have their cards validated (providing the DRM is complete) at one of the accreditation centres, to gain access to Pan Am venues and the CIBC Pan Am Athletes Village.
