Taunton RFC ladies team were in action this weekend at the England touch tournament at Withycombe Rugby Club, Exmouth.

Although very new to the touch rules the ladies held their own and progressed from game to game to finish 4th overall.

“The blistering sun made the going tough but experience was amazing and there were some very happy ladies come the end of the day,” said coach Chris Brown. 

The ladies as a team are looking to continue the touch training and rules development over the summer and enter some tournaments.

Anyone wishing to join our training sessions on a Monday and Wednesday night from 7pm at the rugby club will be more than welcome. 

We offer a mixture of contact and touch training to allow for all types of play throughout the year and to appeal for all types of individual.
