ADULT RUGBY


hOOD RIVER HAMMERS TOUCH RUGBY CLUB 🏉

The Adult Touch Rugby program will be jointly managed by Hood River Valley Parks + Recreation District and the Gorge Touch Rugby Club



ABOUT THE PROGRAM

  • What is Touch Rugby? Much like all good things, touch rugby comes out of Australia where various forms of rugby are the national religion. Touch rugby was developed in the 1960s as a warm up and conditioning game that features simple rules, low risk of injury and is fast and fun to play.

  • Touch rugby is the only sport played at an international level with men and women playing on the same teams. While the various gorge teams may not quite be to international standard (yet), all the teams are a mix of genders, ages and fitness levels. The only physical constraints to play touch rugby are that you need to be able to run forwards and backwards and be able to catch a ball (at least some of the time).

  • This program operates year-round and meets each Tuesday
