The Niue national rugby sevens team is a minor national sevens side.[1] They have participated in two Commonwealth Games — in 2002 and 2006. They also compete in the Oceania Rugby Sevens Championship and the Pacific Games.
In September 2000, Niue competed in their first IRB international tournament when they attended the Oceania qualifiers for the World Cup in Rarotonga.[2] They were invited to the 2001 Wellington Sevens as replacements for France who withdrew from the tournament.[2]
They were pooled with New Zealand and Samoa at the 2004 Wellington Sevens.[3][4] At the 2006 Wellington Sevens they were edged out by Scotland in the Bowl quarterfinals.[5][6]
In 2009, they were drawn in the same pool with New Zealand, Australia, and Wales for the Wellington Sevens.[7][6] They featured at the Adelaide and Wellington Sevens in 2010, and participated in the 2011 Gold Coast Sevens.[8]
Niue competed at the 2023 Oceania Sevens Championship in Brisbane; they finished 15th overall after losing all four of their matches.[9][10]
