Catterick Touch Rugby

Catterick touch rugby offers thrill, excitement, and the camaraderie of the traditional game but without the high impact of tackling. Players are less likely to suffer an injury that would be possible in a full contact game. But, you will have the same opportunity to improve your fitness and enjoy the social benefits of being part of a team.
