Rugby continues to reach new highs and it set a new mark at the Rugby World Cup Sevens 2013 draw earlier this week when a Russian cosmonaut with a Gilbert rugby ball floating by his side made a statement.

The three-day tournament will be an incredible experience for sports fans from Russia and around the world as a top-level international Rugby tournament is staged in Moscow for the very first time.

"Anticipation for this tournament is rising day by day and the race to secure the best possible ranking for the draw has been compelling with all teams putting in astonishing performances during the HSBC Sevens World Series and IRB Women’s," said IRB and Rugby World Cup Limited Chairman Bernard Lapasset.
