Touch Rugby

This video explains why Touch Rugby is perfect for every rugby club to include as part of their community!

How to Get It Started at Your Club

A simple section covering what you actually need to play, how to organize sessions, easiest communication methods for teams, and finding a pitch

Benefits for Kids:

Complements existing contact rugby skills with improved vision, passing, space identification, and decision-making
Provides an entry point for older kids new to rugby without the contact element
Keeps players active with balls in hand during the off-season
Opens pathways to competitive touch tournaments across Surrey through TRY Sports
Most importantly: it's really, really fun!

Benefits for Clubs:

Attracts new memberships from families looking for non-contact options
Creates another active night with potential bar revenue from spectating parents
Builds a vibrant mini-community around the programme
Offers a summer activity for parents who prefer warmer weather over December/January rain
Generates positive word-of-mouth and community engagement

Support & Resources Section

Resources on how we can help people get started, including communication tools and basic requirements. This section should reference that TRY Sports is there to help get it started and provide coaching/guidance.

Key Reminders to Include:

Just start - offer the free sessions and see who comes
No formal touch qualifications needed to get going
Fast, fun, enjoyable should be your guiding principles
Build gradually - start small and grow based on interest
Leverage your community - senior players, engaged parents, and club networks are your greatest assets
