About the team

Touch Rugby is a non-contact sport. Instead of a tackle we use a gentle tap. But we do move vigorously, so we keep fit. Age is no barrier, one of our new members is 82 years young, with no experience of playing rugby.
Ladies are an important part of our squad, they range in age from 60ish to the oldest being over 80. None has ever played rugby before.
Now why is it a good idea to play touch rugby at Pershore Rugby Club?
Simple really its a way of keeping fit with like minded, friendly people who want to enjoy life for as long as possible. We enjoy a coffee and a natter after every session. Some have been known to enjoy a drink as well.
