FD Blueprint Touch Rugby 2010
|
Latest updates 24.06.10 |
Welcome to the sixth annual Blueprint Touch competition, running from Wednesday 5th May until Friday 25th June 2010! Games will take place on Wednesday nights, followed by BBQ and drinks.
What is Touch?
Teams of six players and substitutes play on a field half the size of a traditional rugby field. A game lasts 30 mins and the aim is to score as many tries as possible. Touch is the ultimate summer sport as it not only increases fitness and agility but it enables people of all ages and both sexes to meet socially and have fun.
Who will be playing?
Last year teams from the EU institutions, businesses and sporting clubs joined us, including the European Commission, Freshfields, Berwin Leighton Paisner, Fulcra, BBRFC, Eurocity, UKREP, FD Blueprint and many others.
If you do not have a team but would like to play, please contact us and we will ensure you are allocated to a fun and challenging team for the competition.
How does the tournament work?
To keep the tournament fun, competitive and involving for all, two group stages precede the finals. This year Belgian Touch (www.touch-belgium.be) will provide a player/coach to each team and all the games will be overseen by qualified touch referees.
Profits go to charity
The 2010 profits will again be donated to RETRAK, a charity for street children in Kampala, Uganda and to Ecole Chanterelle, a school for disabled children in Brussels.
Opening night: Wednesday 5 May 2010, 7.00 pm
The first game will kick off the season on 5th May, at 7.00pm.The traditional BBQ and drinks will follow. Once again, Fulcra International will kindly sponsor the T-shirts and Eurocity provide the balls. This year’s competition will be held in association with the Belgian Touch. Registrations are now open through our website.
