Rugby flower Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 I'm looking to start a friendly mixed touch rugby run about or mini-league depending on the level of interest. I am thinking of playing on Sundays mornings or one week night at the playing field by Hunters Bar roundabout, depending on interest and availability. Let me know what you think? Touch rugby is great fun. It provides good skill and fitness for full contact players, and a chance to keep your hand in if you don't want to play/are to old to play (!) full contact. All levels welcome, especially southern hemisphere players, as they tend to play a lot more touch than us Brits, so can lead the way!! Hope to hear from you soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Code13 Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Ladies might like to know that Sheffield Hillsborough Hawks have women's tag (touch) rugby league from about April throughout the summer at Hillsborough Arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugby flower Posted February 25, 2006 Author Share Posted February 25, 2006 Will keep you all posted. Am looking to organise for April/May time when the weather is better. Have been putting the word out among local rugby clubs and gyms and there seems to be some interest. If we can get five teams for seven aside (+rolling subs) it should be a good little league. Let me know if you want posters for your work/local gym. Yes it is absolutely fine if you have never played before. It is a really fun game for all levels.

tbalbone Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Hey! Just browsing the forum, looking for some touch rugby clubs/gatherings and came across this. I know its a couple of years old but did the idea ever get off the ground? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Bute Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Mega-bounce alert. Just for the record - i'm interested too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Bute Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Anyone? Any summer touch leagues at any of the Union/League clubs - I don't suppose it matters - Touch Rugby is basically Rugby league without proper tackling anyway isn't it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dino72 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Did anything come of the initial posting.. I see the trail runs cold as of March and it's now perfect weather for a spot of Touch ? Any takers? Dino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1ke_06 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Presuming this has not taken off? I would be interested in playing if anyone can get it off the ground. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
