Touch Rugby

Touch Rugby is a mixed non-contact sport inspired by rugby league and is one of the fastest-growing international sports to date. SUTRC are an Athletic Union and BUCS team representing the University of Southampton regionally & nationally.

Looking for a sport that’s packed with excitement and easy to pick up? Touch Rugby is your game! 

Imagine the fast-paced action of rugby, but without the heavy contact. It’s all about speed, agility, and teamwork.
