We are but a small, humble CCA of people who really just enjoy whacking the green furry ball. You’ll find most of us behind the parade square, hanging around the tennis courts.

When one hears the word “rugby”, what comes to mind may be the physically tough and rough game that one often sees on American television. Although it has the word “rugby” in it and indeed is a game derived from rugby, Touch Rugby is a sport in which players do not tackle each other. Instead, defending players touch their opponents using their hands on any part of the body, clothing, or the ball. Attacking players try to get the ball to the score line before 6 touches, after which possession of the ball changes over. Every time a touch is made, defenders have to back 5 metres before they can proceed to make another touch.
