Singapore– StarHub announced its appointment as the official broadcaster of the HSBC World Rugby Singapore Sevens. As part of the four-year partnership, StarHub will broadcast the Singapore Sevens live on Singapore’s only free sports channel, SuperSports Arena (StarHub TV Channel 112/205; and 76.25MHz for non-StarHub TV customers).
All other legs of the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series will be broadcast on StarHub’s in-house SuperSports channels. The channels can be accessed on multiple devices including TVs, laptops, tablets and smart phones.
Rugby fans will be able to keep up with the latest World Rugby Sevens news through StarHub’s daily sports news show SuperSports360, which is broadcast on SuperSports Arena. On-air trailers will also be shown across the various channels on StarHub’s pay TV network to further spread awareness of the Series.
Under the agreement, StarHub customers will enjoy a discount of 15% when they purchase tickets to the HSBC World Rugby Singapore Sevens.
StarHub will also be teaming up with FOX Sports to bring in sevens rugby legend Waisale Serevi to conduct a clinic for youths.

The clinic will be held in the week of the Singapore Sevens with more details to be revealed soon.
