The 2020 France Sevens was the thirteenth edition of the annual Sevens tournament held in France. It was the first time since 2019 (2 years, 352 days; suspended due to the impact of COVID-19) that the tournament was held in France, and the first time that the event was held in the southern city of Toulouse, Haute-Garonne at the Stade Ernest-Wallon. The tournament winners were Fiji, who won their fourth France Sevens event, and their second back-to-back tournaments. Fiji won the final against first-time Sevens Series finalists Ireland 29–17.[1] Following the event, Argentina, Ireland, Fiji and hosts France jumped up one place on the series ladder, while Samoa, who finished fourth, jumped from fifteenth to tenth. Teams Canada and Kenya dropped two places, and the United States, finishing with their second-worst result of the series, dropped three places to sit seventh overall.[2][3]

Format

The sixteen teams were drawn into four pools of four. Each team played the three opponents in their pool once. The top two teams from each pool advanced to the Cup bracket, with the losers of the quarter-finals vying for a fifth-place finish. The remaining eight teams that finished third or fourth in their pool played off for 9th place, with the losers of the 9th-place quarter-finals competing for 13th place.
