What is Touch Rugby?

Touch rugby is a mixed, fun and fast paced minimal-contact rugby league variation that emphasises agility, teamwork and strategy over physicality. It is a widely inclusive sport for all players of all ages and abilities. Within a team of 6, it is required that 3 of those players must be women, so it is the perfect sport to get stuck in and get loads of game time. 

What to expect at the session? 

• We will get everyone introduced to the game and its main aims/rules.


• We will build up your skills and confidence through fun minigames and drills throughout the session. 


• Will put the skills to the test and give a game of touch rugby a go! 


• Both experienced and less experienced players will be there so everyone is welcome to come give it a go! (regardless of previous experience). 


• Lots of laughs and getting to know new people. 

Where to meet? 

We will meet at Wide Lane Reception and walk down to the Rugby 4G at 6pm, so make sure you're there just before! Members of committee will be there in their kit so they will be easily identifiable. 

What to bring? 

• Sports Kit


• Water bottle


• Anything to keep warm (jumpers, beanies etc.) 


• Studded boots (if you have them, otherwise trainers is fine!)
