The 2016 Rugby Europe Women's Sevens Grand Prix Series was the top level of international women's rugby sevens competitions organised by Rugby Europe during 2016. The series featured two tournaments, one hosted in Kazan and one hosted in Malemort. In preparation for 2016 Summer Olympics, England and Wales were replaced by two Great Britain representative teams, the Lions and the Royals. France won the Kazan tournament while Russia won the Malemort tournament. Russia won the overall championship. Finland and Ukraine were relegated to the 2017 Trophy series.
The three highest teams who did not already have core team status during the 2016âÂÂ17 World Rugby Women's Sevens Series qualified for the 2017 Hong Kong Women's Sevens, which in turn was a qualifying event for promotion to core team status on the 2017âÂÂ18 World Rugby Women's Sevens Series.
