A press conference was held immediately after friday evening's captain's run which the NTU team met up at the training grounds for one last time before boarding the bus and set off for this weekend's ringEmail SMU Rugby 7s. The final squad which will be travelling to this sunday's ringEmail SMU Rugby 7s was announced at the press conference. Not surprisingly, due to several key players suffering for injuries, NTU player/coach Qing had reshuffled the pack and decided to include a couple more rookies. However, the media also noticed that several senior players had been dropped from the travelling squad, most notably, the biggest signing in NTU history (literally), Rebel Rong.

As quoted during the press conference, "We have been looking forward to this tournament for a long time, despite the fact that our plans were disrupted due to key players getting injured, I believe we still have a strong side. I think selection of the side is probably the most difficult its been since we have started preparing for this. Particularly in the backs, we lost several key players to injuries like Adam "Mat Solo" Chan & Aminurashid "who cant run that fast anymore". We had one week to restructure ourselves and prepare for this tournament. Many has ruled us out as tournament favourites but we will still give every team a run for their money. The team which we will field for each match will be the team which we think that is most suitable for that particular match."
