After missing out during the previous two years due to the Covid pandemic, the festival of rugby will seee 40 teams taking part over three days of competition at the Carrickfergus venue.
It will also be the 50th Carrick Sevens - and to mark the occasion, the Carrick Times is serving up a reminder of the enduring appeal of the event.
