The Australia men's national rugby sevens team participates in international competitions such as the World Rugby Sevens Series and Rugby World Cup Sevens. The current captain of the team is Nick Malouf, and the head coach is John Manenti .

Rugby sevens is now recognised as an Olympic sport and made its debut at the 2016 Summer Olympics. Australia qualified for the tournament after winning the 2015 Oceania Sevens Championship.

Australia also competes at other international tournaments for rugby sevens, including at the Commonwealth Games.

Team name

Logo 2008–2017

The Australia men's national sevens side, as confirmed by head coach Andy Friend in an interview with Green and Gold Rugby website,^[1] does not have a nickname as of 2016. The team is sometimes erroneously referred to as the Aussie Thunderbolts in sections of the media,^[2]^[3] but that name refers to Australia's developmental sevens side (the second team) rather than the official national team.^[1]^[4]

At the inaugural Hong Kong Sevens tournament in 1976, Australia was represented by a selected team under the name Wallaroos,^[5] originally the name of one of the foundation clubs of the Southern Rugby Union in 1874,^[6] but now used for the Australian women's team in 15-a-side rugby. Australia has also been represented at international sevens tournaments by the Australian Barbarians club.^[7]^[8]
