A reminder that touch starts tonight…weather’s looking good for it!

Rally the troops and we’ll see you there. It would be great to have some new faces there.

We’re still also looking for some refs, so if any parents or teens are keen, come on down and make yourself known 👋

Welcome to the new touch season for 2025-26.

Due to Halloween this Friday we are looking to kick off next week the 7th of November.

Games start from 4pm at the Southbridge domain.

We have over 50 kids registered with a good mix across the ages.

On the night we will make up the teams depending on numbers and ages that turn up. Parent help here for the little ones is essential.

If you can’t make it or are late no need to inform us. The goal for Ellesmere touch is for the kids to have another option for summer sport in a semi formal setting.

Updates/postponements and further information will also be posted here
