In their third Langford Final appearance, first-time Langford champions Australia beat New Zealand 21–17 in the Final, a rematch of the 2018 and 2019 events. Hosts Canada beat the United States to finish fifth (12–7). It is their third back-to-back fifth placing at home. Ireland finished third, beating France 22–14. It is their first top four placing in Langford, and their first back-to-back top three placing on the World Rugby Women's Sevens Series.
The twelve teams are drawn into three pools of four. Each team will play their other three opponents in their pool once. The top two teams from each pool advance to the Cup bracket, with the two best third-placed teams also advancing. The remaining four teams will compete for a 9th–12th placing.
The twelve national women's teams competing in Canada were:[2][3]
• Fiji returned to the 2021–22 series after their absence since the Dubai II event.
• Japan was an invited team for the tournament and made their first appearance on the World Series since the 2020 Sydney Sevens.
• New Zealand also returned to the World Series for the first time since the 2020 Sydney Sevens,[4] an absence of 2 years, 87 days.
• Mexico was invited to replace Russia who were banned by World Rugby.[5] Mexico's previous World Series appearance was at the 2018 USA Sevens.
The final pool composition was announced on 10 March.[3]
