The South Africa Women's Sevens is an annual women's rugby sevens tournament announced by World Rugby as one of the stops on the world circuit, with the inaugural competition held in December 2019.

Most destinations on the World Rugby Women's Sevens Series are geographically paired for travel reasons, with South Africa hosting the second tournament of the season following the series opener at Dubai.
