editCup/Plate Quarter Finals
editThe winner of the quarter finals gain entrance to Cup semi-finals. The defeated at this quarter final gain entrance to Plate semi-finals. The Cup/Plate Quarter finals were played with sudden death. In the quarterfinals, MCKK All Blacks, ranked third behind Scots College and Hong Kong Sports School at the end of the preliminary round, trailed 7-10 before overcoming a potentially difficult opponent in Sekolah Alam Shah Putrajaya 19–10. Local powerhouse Tunku Mahkota Ismail Sports School's love affair in this fifth edition of the MCKK Premier Sevens also ended prematurely in the quarterfinals stage. The 2011 and 2012 champions went down 17–14 against a well-oiled attacking machinery of STAR. This is the second time SSTMI failed to advance beyond the second round after back to back victories in earlier editions. In 2014 SSTMI were humbled 43-0 by Scots College in the semi-finals.[3]

Cup
editScots College slammed the brakes on Sekolah Tuanku Abdul Rahman advancement with a 26–12 win in the semi-finals. It was the second time STAR failed to get past Scots College following the 36–14 defeat in last year's Cup final. Hong Kong Sports School, the eventual winner broke the hearts of hundreds of former MCKK All Blacks rugby enthusiasts and folks in the semi-finals with a clinical performance as they romped home to a 22–0 victory over the 2013 champions.[4][5][6][7]
