Improved self-confidence, as well as a sense of ambition, assertiveness and team spirit, are just some of the benefits of team sports such as rugby. Touch rugby (also known as “touch” or “touchies”) is a minimal-contact sport that is played worldwide by men, women and children of all ages. The game emphasizes running, agility and ball-handling skills such as passing and catching. Appearing similar to rugby, without the tackling, scrummaging, kicking and the like, the aim of the game is to score tries. There are two variations of touch rugby that are played at in 2 Touch leagues, namely “1-Touch” and “6-Down”. In 2 Touch 1-touch rules and “FIT” 6-down rules will be applied. In this conversation, we speak to the South African Touch Association about touch rugby in South Africa, its participation in the upcoming Youth Atlantic Cup scheduled to take place in England, and values society can learn from the game of Rugby. Coach Thabo Motsumi and Mbali Khumalo, a touch rugby player, join Lerato Mbele for the conversation.
