Meeting Point: Swiss RE playing fields

The Zurich Touch Rugby peeps are organising a small tournament/discovery day on Saturday May 5th.

The plan is for participants to meet up between 12-1 to register. Then players will be randomly split into teams to ensure an even mix of skills, fitness levels, girls, kids, beginners, etc.

Newbies will be shown the basics, and we'll hope to start playing by around 2pm. Games will be short - 2 x 10 minute halves - with a finals play-off at the end of the day depending on the number of teams.

Some small trophies will be up for grabs whilst everybody tucks into some food/drinks at the end.

The aim of the day is entirely a fun day out in the sun, and maybe to introduce the game to new people. All are welcome.

The location is the Swiss Re playing fields http://map.search.ch/adliswil/rifertstr.15 in Adliswil. The S4 from Zurich HB takes roughly 15 minutes to get there.
RSVP'd Yes: 1 (1 members and No guests)
  • Uncle Max - Sure thing! Look forward to playing. Thanks for the invite!
RSVP'd Maybe: 2 (2 members and No guests)
  • terryhall - I arrive in Zug on May 3rd, so it depends on how quickly I settle in and get unpacked, but I'm definitely very interested!
  • l00p
RSVP'd No: 1
  • Simon - Back for Stag Do unfortunately...
RSVP sign-ups for this event are now closed.

Daniel, what age do kids get involved from? Do you have a minimum?

There's no minimum age set, I think it would depend on the child, and the number of other children. We've had guys show up with kids during regular games before. Send them over for a try and they love it

Hmm...heard a lot about touch rugby from a mate of mine. I reckon I'll give it a go. Hope the weather holds out for tomorrow.

Sorry all,

Due to the expected bad weather tomorrow, this event has been postponed until sometime in July (TBA). The owners of the field do not want us to play in the rain, as it cuts up their nice mud too much.

Thanks for the interest. Some of you may be interested in coming to our regular games, Friday lunchtime and Sunday afternoon at Waffenplatz.

There is a thread here advertising/discussing the regular games.
