Aberdeen F.C. Sevens
The football club ran a Sports Day from 1887 at its Chanonry Ground. In 1889 it introduced rugby sevens as one of the various sports in its Sports Day. The Sports Day concept proved so popular that it often was spread over a week, resulting in a Finals day on the Saturday with prizes awarded.[4]
Thus Aberdeen was the first place outside of the Scottish Borders to host a Sevens tournament, barring a few isolated sevens matches in England.[5]
The club ran its Sports Day with a rugby sevens tournament included to 1893; with Aberdeen University RFC winning all but one tournament. From 1894 the rugby sevens tournament was dropped from its Sports Day.
