I've been watching the Sevens matches going on at San Diego this weekend, and I was wondering if someone could explain the cup, bowl, shield, etc to me. I understand that the cup is the ultimate goal (?), but what qualifies a team for the others?

Side Note: England women played the USA women for the title earlier (England won in sudden death overtime)....as a woman I found it awesome!!! The announcers have been talking all day about the attempt to get sevens into the Olympics...As a fan of softball (former collegiate player) and baseball, I'm saddened that they were dropped, but I think it would be really cool to have rugby in for a change. It seems like there's a real world following.
