the atlantic coast rugby league announced in march 2012 the creation of a new competition for member schools—the atlantic coast invitational rugby 7s series—to begin in the fall of 2012. the acrl 7s series consists of four one-day tournaments of 8-12 teams played at various acrl venues throughout the fall of 2012. the series leads up to the two-day atlantic coast rugby 7s championship played later in the fall. the acrl's reasons for developing this series was due to the increasing popularity of rugby sevens throughout the united states since the 2009 announcement that rugby sevens would be added to the olympics. clemson head coach justin hickey believes that this new rugby 7s series gives the acrl "the opportunity to set the standard on how rugby 7s operates and competes at the collegiate level."
