Rosslyn Park National Schools Sevens project overview

RPNS7 is the world's largest rugby tournament. Supported by HSBC, the tournament is held every year and features over 700 teams playing over 1100 matches.

The brief

• Create a site that will allow teams to register for the tournament online
• Create a design that will persuade visitors to engage with the event via the website
• Create a content management system so the RPNS7 team can update content and upload videos and photos

The result

MintTwist updated the design to be more modern and in-keeping with sports sites. The integration of video and social media appeals to its young audience, and allows them to interact with the tournament. Rugby masters can register their team online and receive immediate confirmation of their registration.

RPNS7 manage the site through a bespoke content management system. As well as managing the teams that have registered and the pages in the site, they also have the ability to turn page sections on and off so the website can adapt to the different stages of the tournament.

The integration of social media is more in tune with their audience and helps them keep up-to-date easily with the pre-tournament build-up, as well as scores when the tournament is played.
