The 2007 CAR Development Trophy, at the time called the CAR Castel Cup for the sponsor, was the fourth edition of a rugby union tournament in Africa. It consisted of teams in the second division.
The competition places sixteen teams into two zones, North and South. Each zone is then divided into two pools of four. Each pool winner then qualifies for the final, so there is a winner for both north and south.
In 2007, Botswana defeated Tanzania with a score of 37-14 to win the South final. In the North Nigeria won. Burkina Faso did not compete in the final.
