Welcome to the 'Touch & Beach Section', the new addition to the family of rugby within TRFC. We'd like to extend a very warm invitation to anyone interested in joining us.
Touch rugby is a relatively new development within the game, one that is highly inclusive, easy to play, and great fun. We've girls and boys ranging from 15 to 55 and whether you've never played rugby before, or thought your playing days were behind you…we'd be delighted to see you!
Tynedale RFC Touch Section will be running an informal Summer League from May to August. We will also be entering a number of competitions which will include the Newcastle Falcon's Summer League (May to June) and the Beach Festival (a one-off event in August).
Although joining in and playing will be free, we also offer 'Club Membership' of the Touch Rugby section at £25 per player. This is restricted to twenty-five players and offers members a 'shareholding' in The Great North Festival. Whilst £10 of the membership fee goes to TRFC, the remainder is used to subsidise kit and club entry into external events, in addition, 40% of net profits from the Great North Festival will be retained by the 'Club Membership' and we hope to enter events such as the Bournemouth 7's.
Further information will be posted on the club website.
As mentioned above, TRFC are hosting a fundraising 'Touch' festival, details of which can be found by clicking here.
