The Ella Sevens established in 2007, is an annual national Indigenous Rugby Sevens tournament held in Coffs Harbour attracting interest from all over Australia.

Named after the illustrious Ella brothers, the Ella Sevens represents the culmination of many years of hard work teaching sporting skills and spreading the love of rugby. The tournament provides a showcase for Indigenous rugby and includes many players and coaches who have participated in our regional coaching clinics.
