WELCOME TO TOUCH AND BBQ ON WEDNESDAY NIGHTS
Uppsala rugby club is proud to announce that we will be starting with touch for all paying members on Wednesday nights starting 22nd June and going on throughout the summer. The idea is that we all do something together as a club, which we all enjoy and have some fun and food (and even drink) at the same time. We meet at the pitch at 18.30 for warm up, with touch starting at 19. Please bring your own everything (BYOE) for the BBQ after as well as a smile on your face.
WANT TO JOIN? Join the summer touch sessions without being a full-fledged rugby player, get a Supporter's membership (250 sek/year). Possible to pay by Swish at the pitch, if you are one who don't plan ahead!

We will arrange for someone to referee and if we get lots of numbers than 2 games can go on at the same time using half the pitch. We will play ‘proper’ touch and so it’s important that you all know the rules before you start.
Touch Rules
Please watch the 2 min clip below for all you need to know:
- Teams of 6 or 7 with rolling subs
- One handed touch (yes ONE HANDED)
- Defending team must back 5m after a touch
- The player touched must place the ball between their legs (chicken scratch) at the place where they were touched.
- Each team gets 6 touches to score a try.
- If the ball is turned over then the other team restarts by putting the ball between their legs. Turn overs occur when :
- Scrum half is touched (the scrum half also cannot score)
- If you do not score in 6 touches
- The ball is dropped
- The other team restarts by *tapping the ball (penalty) when:
- At the beginning of play
- There is a forward pass
- There is a touch and pass
*Obs! Here the opposition has to be 10m back.
- PLEBS RULE: No contact of any sort (shoulder charges, elbowing etc results in a new set of 6 touches)
- HAVE FUN J
