touch rugby
Touch rugby refers to games derived from rugby football in which players do not tackle each other in the traditional, highly physical way, but instead touch their opponents using their hands on any part of the body, clothing, or the ball.
A formal, competitive variety, known as Touch, developed from rugby league and now exists as a sport in its own right. In addition, touch rugby games are played as training activities for rugby league and rugby union; as safer variants of rugby, particularly in schools and junior clubs, and as an informal social sport.
==Features==
Touch rugby has a number of differences from the traditional games, including its simplicity (it requires very little equipment or goalposts), its ease of learning and the decreased likelihood of injury. As a result, it is a popular social game; mixed-gender and women-only games are also very popular in the UK where Touch Rugby is played in many popular centres around England and Scotland. Touch Rugby League is a growing competition in Brisbane, Australia.〔http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,25316571-5014143,00.html〕 Touch rugby is also gaining popularity in the United States where it is becoming known as 'Touch'. The USA Touch association hosts an annual national championship.
Beach touch is also popular. Social touch games in South Africa (predominantly the single-touch version) are often played barefoot on grass and as sponsored tournaments at popular seaside holiday sites.
