Watch every second of the 2026 Nations Championship live and on demand via Stan Sport.<\/a><\/p>\nNathan is one of the highest try-scorers in the history of the World Series, recently notching up her 150th try in Bordeaux, helping the Aussies to the World Championship.<\/p>\n
The reigning Shawn Mackay Award winner is one of several aiming for a third Olympics, featuring in Tokyo and Paris.<\/p>\n
For Dennis, the LA Olympics would be her debut after two star-making seasons in the program.<\/p>\n
The former football prodigy notched up 29 tries in the 2025-26 World Series and was named Player of the Final in Valladolid after a two-try effort against the USA.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Terita featured in Paris as the Aussies finished fourth at the last Olympics.<\/p>\n
The flyer has a wealth of experience and was selected for the Wallaroos at the delayed 2022 Rugby World Cup.<\/p>\n
Terita was set for her second World Cup apparance last year, only for injury to derail her season.<\/p>\n
Nicholas rounds out the quartet, debuting at the home of the World Series in Hong Kong in 2024.<\/p>\n
The 21-year-old helped the Aussies claim the Cape Town title in December, with Director of Women’s High Performance Tim Walsh pleased to return the talented group ahead of the Olympic qualifying period next year.<\/p>\n
“Faith is one of our greatest try-scorers, hardest-working and consistent players who brings winning experience having recently notched 40 caps,” Walsh said.<\/p>\n
\u201cHeidi has developed incredibly well in the past 18 months to become one of our most potent attacking weapons. She possesses speed, power, skill, and a physical presence.<\/p>\n
\u201cBienne has shown tremendous resilience to get back from injury this year and the energetic Ruby is ever-reliable with more opportunities for her on the horizon.<\/p>\n
\u201cOverall we\u2019re in a stronger position than we were at this stage leading into the Paris Olympic cycle.<\/p>\n
\u201cMaturity and winning when it matters was the mantra for the vintage of 2026. We\u2019ve worked hard in developing and maturing our squad while developing the next generation of ‘Top Gun’ graduates.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Australian Women’s Sevens program has locked down a quartet of stars for the LA Olympics, with Faith…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":465913,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[567],"tags":[64,63,40283,760,178643,85],"class_list":["post-815707","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-rugby","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-australian-womens-sevens","tag-rugby","tag-sevens-world-series","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/815707","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=815707"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/815707\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/465913"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=815707"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=815707"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=815707"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
