The final qualification repechage tournament for women's rugby sevens at the 2020 Summer Olympics was held on 19–20 June 2021 at Stade Louis II in Monaco.[1] The tournament was originally scheduled for a year earlier,[2] but was postponed until 2021 due to the global COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
Twelve women's teams were eligible to compete in the repechage tournament, as high placing teams from the six continental Olympic qualification events. Jamaica was a late withdrawal from the tournament due to travel difficulties presented by the global COVID-19 pandemic, which reduced the number of teams competing to eleven.[4]
France and Russia were the two best teams in the repechage, each going through the tournament undefeated. They claimed the two qualifying berths on offer for the women's sevens tournament at the Tokyo Olympics.[2][5]
