We know you really want to get out there on the pitch and show your daughters how to REALLY play the game!
Well - now you could have the chance! Ann-Marie Sand - captain of Barnet Elizabethans Women’s Rugby Club - is interested in promoting Women’s Touch Rugby this summer.
It is planned to hold an pilot event at Barnet Elizabethans on Sunday 17th June to be (if successful) followed by further events in July, August and September 2007 (with an eye of the men's Rugby World Cup in September and October 2007).
The games would be six or seven-a-side; squads of 12, rolling substitutions, etc., and no more than two regular rugby players in each team on the pitch at any time - other players to be newcomers, the key objective being to encourage new players. No age detail are given, but even if it is over 18 you could still have Nim and Rachel leading you...
The festival would be run with groups of 4-5 teams playing games 7-10 minutes each way with a social activity to follow the event.
A progress meeting will be held at Barnet Elizabethans in due course, but if you are interested in the meanwhile contact Beverley Collier (BeverleyCollier@rfu.com)
