They are currently the 2023 European Champions; they were also champions in 2007 and 2015. France has competed in the Summer Olympics since its debut at the 2016 Rio Olympics and were silver medalists at the 2020 Games.
They have been a core team in the Women's Sevens Series since the 2014–15 season. They have also competed in the Sevens World Cup since the inauguration of the women's tournament in 2009, and were silver medalists in 2018.
France competed in the inaugural Women's Sevens World Cup in Dubai, in 2009. They finished at the top of their pool despite losing to the Netherlands in their opening game. They were eliminated by the United States in the Cup quarter-finals without having scored a single point. They finally finished in seventh place after losing to Canada in the Plate semi-finals.
As the first edition of the Women's Sevens World Series commenced in the 2012–2013 season, France participated as an invitational team for two of the four tournaments.
In 2013 France took part in their second World Cup at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow, Russia. They finished third in their pool behind Russia and England, with Russia surprising England to win the last match of the group stage. In the Bowl finals, France dominated Tunisia in the quarters before being eliminated by Fiji. They eventually finished in eleventh place overall.
In order to qualify for the Rio Olympics, where rugby was making its return, France had to win the 2015 Grand Prix with a best combined result of two tournaments. After failing in the first stage in Kazan in the final against the Russians, the Les Bleues got their revenge in Brive in the final stage by beating Russia in the semi-final. They then won the final against Spain and qualified for the 2016 Olympics.
Les Bleues started their first Olympic Games with victories against Spain and Kenya, but lost to New Zealand and were placed second in their pool. They then lost in the quarter-finals of the medal playoffs against Canada, they met Spain again in the semi-final for fifth place and beat them. However, they lost to the United States in the final and finished in sixth place.
They competed at the 2018 Rugby World Cup Sevens, their qualification being determined by their placement in the 2016–17 World Rugby Women's Sevens Series.[1] They went undefeated on their way to the final, even beating Olympic champions, Australia, 19–12 in the semis before succumbing to defending champions, New Zealand, in the finals where they were defeated 29–0.[2]
