A total of 16 teams will be heading to High River Saturday, May 5, for the annual Mustangs 7's rugby tournament.

Mustangs Coach Dave Roberts says they have eight girls and eight boys teams taking part from schools around Southern Alberta.

He says it's a spectator friendly event, because with just seven players aside, the games move fast.

"Seven minutes halves, with 14 players on the field, seven on each side, and it's just wide open, lots of running, lots of flair. It's kind of a show off for rugby. Kids get to run and pass and be all over the field."

The tournament gets rolling at 9 a.m. and wraps up around 5 Saturday afternoon.
