Event Details - Co-Ed Touch Rugby Regular Season Games

FREE Admission to come out to watch the Saint John Co-Ed Touch Rugby League (SJTRL) Regular Season games.

Games are at the Emera NB Turf Field located at Shamrock Park.

Playing in a six-on-six format, touch rugby uses the same rules as traditional rugby but instead of tackling opponents, you touch them with one hand to prevent them from scoring points. Once an opponent is touched, they then initiate a roll ball on the ground through their legs to a teammate who can then try to advance down the field with their teammates. Also unique to touch rugby is that if a team cannot get a “try” or score within six touches down the field, the ball will be turned over to the other team. Games are 12 min halves with a short halftime break. The field is divided into two halves so that two games can be played simultaneously.
