The Georgia national rugby sevens team is a minor national sevens side. They have featured at the Rugby World Cup Sevens on four occasions and compete annually at the Rugby Europe Sevens. They have occasionally qualified for the World Rugby Sevens Series, but they have never been a 'core team' on the Sevens Series. Georgia has participated qualifying tournaments for the Olympics, but have never qualified.

Georgia qualified for the 2024 World Rugby Sevens Challenger Series in Dubai. In round one of the tournament, they were beaten by Hong Kong in the seventh place playoff and finished eighth.[1][2] They completed the overall Challenger Series in eighth place.[3]
