What is Touch?
The game of touch was established in Australia more than 40 years ago and was loosely described as a simplified non-contact version of rugby league. The game has been competitively played in Ireland for the last five years. Touch is played by both men and women, and is commonly played as a social mixed sport in most rugby nations.
Background to Touch Rugby in Ireland
The Ireland Touch Association was formed in 2007 and is a non-profit organisation. Ireland has competed at the last two European Touch Championships in 2006 and 2008. Competitive summer leagues are held in Dublin at Terenure College on Wednesday and Thursday evenings.
