New Zealand Rugby is considering co‑hosting the Hamilton 7s with Fiji during the 2020‑2023 cycle.

Chief Rugby Officer Nigel Cass says everyone has seen the contribution of the Fijian rugby community to the success of the tournament in Hamilton both on the field and in the stands.

He told Radio New Zealand the option being looked at is alternating the tournament between Hamilton and Fiji and early negotiations are promising.

Fiji Rugby Union CEO John O'Connor says they are confident of delivering an amazing experience for everyone involved.

Hamilton will host a combined men's and women's rugby sevens tournament from next season.
