History
Team name
The national sevens side is known as Australia and, as confirmed by captain Sharni Williams, does not have a nickname as of 2015. The team was sometimes referred to as the Pearls in sections of the media, but that name refers to Australia's developmental sevens side rather than the official national team. As of 2015, the developmental team also competes in the Pacific Games Sevens.
2022
Australia won the 2021–22 Women's Sevens Series title, they then won the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, and were later crowned champions of the Rugby World Cup Sevens completing 2022 with a historic clean sweep of every major tournament.
