WHAT IS TOUCH RUGBY…
The origins of touch rugby can be traced back to Australia in the 1960s where it was used as a warm up game. The simplicity of this game is unique; all you need is a rugby ball, a space to play and a group of friends. Touchrugby is a fast moving, minimal contact, evasive game that is played throughout the world by men and women of all ages and skill levels. The game is similar to rugby but without the tackling, scrummaging, rucking, mauling, lineouts and kicking. This fast, simple and exciting game promotes the fundamental skills of running, handling, evasion and support play, whilst developing basic principles of attack and defence, without the fear of getting hurt.
