TOUCH RUGBY AT CHOBHAM
There are many ways you can take part in touch rugby at Chobham:
WOW : Women only Wednesdays this is exactly what it says on the tin ... we are keen to get new playersalong and its a fun way to improve your fitness. We also do compete in a number of events too so youcan get involved at any level.
TNT : Thursday Night Touch is a pitch up and play for anyone in the u14s age group and above - it's fastbut not too furious and runs all year round
Legends League : We run an over 40s session on the last Friday of each month. As a number of ex-players have found it's a tough format so we are now running a few drills each session to familiarise folk
with the O2 format. This is followed by an hour of touch Rugby and some light hearted banter at the bar
Competitions : We play competitive formats with the ladies heading over to a ladies only league eachmonth and we also play a mixed team in the Surrey and Middlesex touch league
