miltonbentley Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 (edited) We are getting together a group of people to play Touch Rugby on Sunday afternoons. For those who do not know Touch is a non contact version of rugby that is becoming increasingly popular. There is no tackling involved so it is an ideal mixed sex sport and we already have both men and women signed up to play. You don't have to be a rugby expert or to have played before, some of the people coming to play know nothing about rugby but Touch is a simple game so if you don't know the rules you will soon pick it up. We plan to play at 4pm probably at CMU so if you would like to join us drop me a PM so I can confirm details. Everyone is welcome it is just for a bit of fitness and fun.

miltonbentley Posted November 9, 2009 Author Share Posted November 9, 2009 You will be very welcome Donny. We had our first run out yesterday and it went very well. There was a big range in standards of knowledge and fitness but that didn't matter as everyone had a lot of fun. We will be meeting at 4pm next Sunday on the rugby pitches at CMU (that's by the Huay Kaew entrance). Anyone wishing to participate is very welcome.

Everyone is very welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A picture's worth a thousand words to have a look at the video Hi, I guess your welcoming both farang and Thai players, and I'll mention this to my son. He's Thai, 28 years old, speaks English and Thai, and he has a certificate in teaching rugby and refereeing rugby (rugby not touch rugby, but I guess there's a connection) from the Thai Rugby Association (I think that's the correct title). He's a graduate of a Thai university which has the best reputation for bachelor degree in teaching sport and physical education in Thailand. In fact he's moving his family to live permanently in CM in about April next year, but right now he takes the family to CM whenever he has an opportunity.

miltonbentley Posted February 7, 2010 Author Share Posted February 7, 2010 We have stopped playing as there was a problem getting enough people out on a regular basis. If it starts up again I will post here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
