New Zealand Sevens players Teddy Stanaway and Regan Ware have signed with the Bay of Plenty Rugby Union for the 2016 Mitre 10 Cup season.
They will join New Zealand Sevens team mate Joe Webber representing the Bay of Plenty Steamers this season following their return from the Rio Olympics.
Mount Maunganui Sports' Stanaway last played for the Steamers in 2014 and returned from injury to the Sevens game last year.
In December Stanaway debuted for the All Black Sevens team in Cape Town following his call up into the squad as an injury replacement. His consistent form on the international circuit this year has seen him earn a spot in the All Blacks Sevens squad for the Rio Olympics.
Ware, 21, a former New Zealand Secondary Schools representative, has had an outstanding first year in international sevens rugby, nominated for the Rookie of the Year.
