seven-a-side
Smaller team variant
Seven-a-side describes a sport played with seven players per team, typically a modified version of a game normally played with more.
Rugby sevens is the most prominent example, an Olympic sport since 2016 featuring faster, more open play than the fifteen-player game: The seven-a-side tournament runs all weekend.
